Description

Book Synopsis
James M. Glaser and Timothy J. Ryan vividly show how political strategies can counteract the impulse to think about racial issues in terms of winners and losers. Their problem-focused research shows how communities can build majority support for minority interests, even in the face of emotionally charged group conflicts.

Trade Review
"A substantive, intellectually engaging read. Changing Minds, If Not Hearts challenges the idea that intractable racial attitudes explain most political outcomes and offers compelling evidence that framing issues to defuse group conflict may successfully address some of the systemic obstacles that racial minorities face in democracies." * Melissa Nobles, Massachusetts Institute of Technology *
