博客來Cultural Diversity: American Ideals, Institutions, and Lived Experiences explores the rich and complex fabric of the demographic and cultural landscape of America. This anthology offers a critical view into the various dimensions and shifts in American cultural diversity across time.
The book progresses from foundational concepts of diversity and historical contexts to current ideological debates and practical implications across various social spectrums. Key topics include the evolution of racial, ethnic, and religious diversity, discussions around gender, sexuality, and sexual orientation, and in-depth explorations of material disparities including economic inequality class, health, and disability issues in relation to cultural diversity.
Cultural Diversity is an ideal textbook for courses in anthropology, sociology, and cultural studies. Its insight into the collective and individual identities shaped by historical and modern-day America, as well as its examination of the mechanisms that spawn inequality, makes it an exemplary text for any course exploring the sociocultural fabric of the country.
