Public Policy and Ethnicity

Meer over het boek

The book explores the institutionalization of ethnicity as a political category, highlighting its impact on public policymaking across various international contexts, including New Zealand. It argues that such divisions can lead to permanent and harmful consequences, contradicting the social fluidity characteristic of contemporary societies. Through a critical analysis, it examines how these artificial distinctions shape political landscapes and societal interactions. The preface by Jonathan Friedman adds further depth to the discussion.
