多元文化主义或他所说的多样性意识运动。他总结说,有几个问题是多元化意识运动没有充分解决的。例如,非裔美国人社区的本质是什么?他认为,在这些答案出现之前,美国人无法理解他们的共同经历。在结语部分,约翰·海厄姆借鉴了范·伍德沃德的观点,将民权运动描述为一系列的重建。第一次重建发生在美国国会禁止奴隶贸易的时候。第二次是在美国内战之后。第三个是1963年到1968年间迅速发展的民权运动。High - am预测,当教堂、学校和媒体恢复人们对国家认同和人类可能性的信心时,第四次重建就会发生。虽然《民权与社会不公》收集了几位有前途的作家的文章,但他们的作品参差不齐。此外,作者提出的观点范围很窄。也许更重要的是,这本书并不是像书名所暗示的那样,是一部自第一次世界大战以来的黑人与白人关系史。封面上的一段话断言,这些论文的共同主题是,民权运动导致了平权行动和多元文化主义,使改革陷入僵局。然而,这本书并没有对这种发展提供一个清晰的论证。这些论文也不符合巴尔奇研究所举办的会议的主题。因此,这本书代表了一个错失的机会。巴尔奇研究所召集的那些才华横溢的学者可以解释民权运动是如何随着时间的推移而变化的,但他们无法维持他们为本书所制定的研究重点。因此,读者不会从这本书中学到如何振兴民权运动。
of multiculturalism or what he calls the diversity awareness movement. He concludes that there are several problems that the diversity awareness move­ ment does not adequately address. For example, what is the essential nature of the African-American community? Until these answers appear, he argues, Americans cannot understand their common experience. In the conclusion, John Higham borrows an idea from C. Van Wood­ ward and describes the civil rights movement as a series of reconstructions. The first reconstruction took place when the United States Congress pro­ hibited slave trade. The second followed the U.S. Civil War. The third was the civil rights movement that grew rapidly from 1963 to 1968. High­ am predicts the fourth reconstruction will occur when churches, schools, and media restore people's faith in their national identity and in human possibilities. Although Civil Rights and Social Wrongs collects essays by several promi­ nent authors, their work is uneven. Further, the authors present a narrow range of views. More important, perhaps, the book is not a histoiy of blackwhite relations since World War I I as the title suggests. One of the state­ ments on the cover asserts that the common theme among these papers is that the civil rights movement led to affirmative action and multicultural­ ism which stalemated the reform. However, the book does not offer a clear demonstration of such a development. Nor do the papers fit the theme of the conference held by the Balch Institute. Consequently, this book represents a missed opportunity. The tal­ ented scholars that the Balch Institute brought together for the seminar could explain how the civil rights movement changed over time, but they could not maintain the research emphases they developed for this book. As a result, readers will not learn from this volume how to revitalize the civil rights movement.
