It is pitched at upper-level undergraduate and graduate-level race and ethnicity students...in sum, this is an important book, highly recommended to students and faculty alike. The authors draw extensively from classic and contemporary sociological theory throughout the text and maintain a transnational focus in each and every chapter." --TEACHING SOCIOLOGY"I used Cornell′s earlier edition for years and consider it to be one of the best explanations/ examinations of race and ethnic relations around."--Margot Kempers, Fitchburg State CollegeEthnicity and Race: Making Identities in a Changing World, Second Edition uses examples and extended case studies from all over the world to craft a compelling, even-handed account of the power and persistence of ethnicity and race in the contemporary world.
