Working paper
The peer-reviewed papers gathered here are representative of the work presented at the first graduate student conference organized by the Center for the Study of Democracy, in February 2005. The conference focused on the development of democracy to better understand the fundamentals of the process. The conference drew submissions from Ph.D. candidates from seven schools in the Southern California area, covering a range of disciplines, methodologies, geographic concentrations and substantive questions about democratic development in the "established" democracies, consolidating democracies, or democratic transitions.

The role that ethnicity & race will play in the political life of non-European immigrant groups in the US is explored using 1984 Calif survey data (N = 574 Latinos, 335 blacks, 308 Asian Americans, & 317 non-Hispanic whites) on minority participation in politics. It was found that blacks & non-Hispanic whites participate at approximately equal rates, but Latinos & Asian Americans are much less active. It is possible that this variation is the result of cultural factors, or it may reflect differences in education, citizenship, & age. Even with citizenship taken into account, these two groups register & vote at lower rates than do blacks & whites. Other factors than citizenship & demography probably reduce Asian-American participation, & some possibilities are proposed. It is suggested that political parties can play a major role in shaping the future of politics, since party recruitment can raise the rates of activity. 7 Tables, 64 References. F. S. J. Ledgister
The real and potential impact of immigration policy decisions on African Americans is profound. Yet policy makers today lack systematic knowledge of crucial social, political, and economic issues relating to the formulation of wise immigration policies, charges the editor of this book. Gerald D. Jaynes argues that little is known about important questions regarding the relations and attitudes between African Americans and minority immigrant groups, the impact of recent immigration trends on the socioeconomic status of poor African Americans, the comparative social positions of Asian Americans and Latinos, and many other related topics. In this book, the editor and thirteen other distinguished contributors consider how the large-scale influx of immigrants in recent times has affected African American communities and racial and ethnic relations. The insights about conflicts and competition derived from the work of these authors are vital to those who formulate immigration policies--policies that directly affect the well-being of the disadvantaged and indeed all Americans.Contributors: Frank D.
