Ethnic Boundary Making: Institutions, Power, Networks - Oxford Studies in Culture and Politics
Wimmer, Andreas (Professor of Sociology, Professor of Sociology, Princeton University)
Introducing a new comparative theory of ethnicity, Andreas Wimmer shows why ethnicity matters in certain societies and contexts but not in others, and why it is sometimes associated with inequality and exclusion, with political and public debate, with closely-held identities, while in other cases ethnicity does not structure the allocation of resources, invites little political passion, and represent secondary aspects of individual identity.
