{"product_id":"9780815723998","title":"Diversity Explosion: How New Racial Demographics are Remaking America","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt its optimistic best, America has embraced its identity as the world's melting pot. Today it is on the cusp of becoming a country with no racial majority, and new minorities are poised to exert a profound impact on U.S. society, economy, and politics. The concept of a \"minority white\" may instill fear among some Americans, but William H. Frey, the man behind the demographic research, points out that demography is destiny, and the fear of a more racially diverse nation will almost certainly dissipate over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough a compelling narrative and eye-catching charts and maps, eminent demographer Frey interprets and expounds on the dramatic growth of minority populations in the United States. He finds that without these expanding groups, America could face a bleak future: this new generation of young minorities, who are having children at a faster rate than whites, is infusing our aging labor force with vitality and innovation. In contrast with the labor force-age population of Japan, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom, the U.S. labor force-age population is set to grow 5 percent by 2030.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eDiversity Explosion\u003c\/i\u003e shares the good news about diversity in the coming decades, and the more globalized, multiracial country that the U.S. is becoming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Pivotal Period for Race in America\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOld versus Young: Cultural Generation Gaps\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmerica's New Racial Map\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHispanics Fan Out: Who Goes Where?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAsians in America: The Newest Minority Surge\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Great Migration of Blacks—In Reverse\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite Population Shifts—A Zero-Sum\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMelting Pot Cities and Suburbs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeighborhood Segregation: Toward a New Racial Paradigm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMultiracial Marriages and Multiracial America\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRace and Politics: Expanding the Battleground\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmerica on the Cusp\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47110558056688,"sku":"9780815723998","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780815723998_p0.jpg?v=1769909690","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780815723998","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
