Summary
John Stone: Racial Conflict in Contemporary Society
Stone provides a synthesis of the reasons for racial conflicts in the modern world. Deals with arguments for racial biology, various aspects of I.Q. controversies, the rise and importance of sociobiology, but also modernization theories and claims about a Marxist, plural society. Showing examples of racial and ethnic conflicts around the world - from South Africa and apartheid to contemporary melting pot environments in Western countries - he points out that ethnic diversity affects the social structure at all levels: from the family, through education, housing and employment to industry and management.
