Abstract

The centrality of race for American political development is by now well understood. Social scientists have traced the interaction between race and the construction of federal political institutions, the class/race (or gender/race) nexus in public policymaking, and the effect of racial attitudes and racism on the political beliefs and policy preferences of citizens and policymakers alike. In recent years, research and theories about the American “racial state” have delved into many of the crevices of U.S. history that had previously ignored, veiled, or underplayed racial factors.1
