Description
Summary:Review committees for the discipline's small number of racially-aware book awards, including APSA's Ralph Bunche Award, the REP Section's best book awards, NCOBPS' W.E.B. DuBois Award, and others from the Latina/o Caucus, the Asian Pacific American Caucus, and other scholarly groups, have seen a dramatic increase in the numbers and production quality of books in our fields. With this issue of JREP, we will have published reviews of 19 books, on subjects as diverse as urban political culture, presidential elections, the political thought of Frantz Fanon, racial and ethnic politics in southeast Asia, Africa, and Europe, South Asian and Muslim integration in the West, European and U.S. immigration policy, neoliberalism, Black women legislators, Indigenous sovereignty, the politics of incarceration, and more. [...]on behalf of everyone at JREP, please accept my appreciation for your continued support.
