Race and Representation Electoral Politics and Ethnic Pluralism in Britain

A major re-examination of the role of ethnicity in shaping British political attitudes and voting behavior, this is the first systematic attempt to compare white and ethnic minority voting based on a single, coherent analytical framework. The book pioneers innovative use of the British Election Study and features the results of the 1997 ethnic minority election study. It offers an in-depth look at party strategy with regard to ethnic minorities, ethnic minority attitudes on key issues and policies, and the lessons to be learned from the performance of black and Asian parliamentary candidates.Saggar, Shamit is the author of 'Race and Representation Electoral Politics and Ethnic Pluralism in Britain' with ISBN 9780719059872 and ISBN 0719059879.
