Africana Social Stratification by James L Conyers Jr
This study seeks to critically examine the field and function of social stratification, with emphasis on Africana phenomena. Phrased another way, this edited volume attempts to study and focus on who gets what and why, with regard to resources and structural application of support. The John Henrik Clarke query is who made this arrangement of leadership in America. Moreover, serving as a reference, this study will assist researchers in contextualizing and thematically examining the structural and resource allocation of disparity exhibited toward Africana people. This manuscript of essays is the first its kind. This study incorporates an interdisciplinary scope to examine the concept of Africana Social Stratification in the subject areas of: history, political science, economics, Africana Studies, and social policy.
James Conyers, as Africana Social Stratification: An Interdisciplinary Study of Economics, Policy, and Labor demonstrates, remains the dominant organizer of intellectual cadres of social and behavioral thinking in the field of Africana StudiesThis insightful book brings together some of the key theorists and interpreters of social stratification. In my opinion, Conyers' book is long overdue and must be read by those who entertain the idea that they know something about contemporary society. I highly recommend this work for my colleagues and students. -- Molefi Kete Asante, author of Revolutionary Pedagogy: Primer for Teachers of Black Children
Stratification is the timely bridge topic that enlivens the discipline of Africana Studies’ frames of reference for exploring a core subject area of economics, which sometimes gets a too cursory glance. Allowing early, middle, and final key essays on economic stratification, inequality, and business to serve as stabilizing critical infrastructure, this volume weaves studies on Pan-Africanism, gender and racial discourses, insurance, immigration, and more to supply readers with dynamic updated terminologies and evidence of numerous domestic and international conditions. We can now address policy, labor, and wealth issues with new authority. -- Christel N. Temple, University of Pittsburgh
