Constructing Race and Ethnicity in America: Category-making in Public Policy and Administration
Dvora Yanow
This work examines what is meant by the terms "race" and "ethnicity" and examines why policy makers continue to use them as if they had some scientific standing. It argues that "race" and "ethnicity" are socially constructed concepts, not objective, scientifically grounded variables.
