It is an original and a thought-provoking pioneering endeavor." -Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis: Research and Practice "Race and Social Equitywill convince many readers that all public administration scholars and practitioners should be more conscious of how [issues of race] may affect their daily work." -Administration & Society "This book is especially useful for readers who are familiar with issues of race and diversity from media coverage or from workplace training, but lack deeper background knowledge of the conditions associated with race-related tensions in society. Whether or not people in every public affairs class and every public organization need to deal with the issue of race, Race and Social Equity will convince many readers that all public administration scholars and practitioners should be more conscious of how it may affect their daily work." - Richard C.

SynopsisIn this compelling book the author contends that social equity--specifically racial equity--is a nervous area of government. Over the course of history, this nervousness has stifled many individuals and organizations, thus leading to an inability to seriously advance the reduction of racial inequities in government. The author asserts that until this nervousness is effectively managed, public administration social equity efforts designed to reduce racial inequities cannot realize their full potential.
