Abstract:
'Racism, Latinos, and the Public Policy Process' traces the process through which race and racism are infused in the public policy process. It begins with a definition and short history of racism followed by a discussion of how individuals learn and absorb racial ideas and how these ideas become essential elements of the public policy process, with these three policy areas forming the empirical bases of the discussion other areas are highlighted as the discussion proceeds. The volume provides new insights on the relationship between decisional policy structures and individual beliefs and their relationship during the process
