Elite Communications and Racial Group Conflict in the 21st Century

21 世纪的精英沟通与种族群体冲突

基本信息

项目摘要

In the past few decades, the racial and ethnic composition of the United States has undergone dramatic changes. During this period Latinos have eclipsed African Americans as the single largest ethnic minority group in the country and they have increasingly settled in large numbers outside of traditional gateway cities in the west and northeast. The percentage of African Americans in the country has not increased nearly as fast but it continues to grow as a share of the overall population and as a share of registered voters. In light of the changing racial and ethnic landscape, this study will address the prospects for inter-group conflict or cooperation in the new century. The investigators are particularly interested in the ways that co-ethnic political elites and interest group leaders can shape the attitudes that African Americans, Latinos, and Whites have about one another. The study will address whether statements by group leaders that are reported in the mass media can inflame or diminish inter-group hostility. For example, are Whites more likely to bring their racial identity to bear on their policy preferences if political leaders provide them with a license to do so? Are similar appeals also effective for African Americans and Latinos? Additionally, the study will explore whether appeals of this sort are more effective when delivered with indirect or coded language, rather than more explicit appeals and whether political appeals designed to cleave the electorate along racial lines are more effective in the American south. Two distinct experiments will be embedded in a nationally representative Internet survey to test hypotheses about group conflict. The study will test, and potentially modify, a number of theories concerning racial attitudes and identity politics in the fields of political science, sociology, social psychology, and communication studies. This work will explore the contingent nature of racial and ethnic identities and seek to identify the circumstances in which they can be brought to bear on policy preferences and other political decisions. This research also has implications beyond advancing the social science literature. With the inauguration of Barack Obama as the nation's 44th President, many political observers predicted that the country would enter a new, "post-racial," era. However, it may be the case that Obama's victory, coupled with the demographic changes outlined above, will make race and ethnicity more salient in the future. It is also possible that some political figures will have an incentive to capitalize on lingering racial fears and resentments. If scholars can generate an improved understanding of the possibilities and limitations of these appeals, then society will be better equipped to combat divisive racial rhetoric.
在过去的几十年里,美国的种族和民族构成发生了巨大变化。在此期间,拉丁美洲人已经超过非裔美国人,成为美国最大的少数民族群体,他们越来越多地定居在西部和东北部传统门户城市以外的地区。非洲裔美国人在美国的比例增长速度没有那么快,但它在总人口和登记选民中所占的比例都在继续增长。鉴于不断变化的种族和民族格局,本研究将探讨在新世纪中群体间冲突或合作的前景。调查人员特别感兴趣的是,同种族的政治精英和利益集团领导人如何影响非洲裔美国人、拉美裔美国人和白人对彼此的态度。这项研究将探讨大众媒体报道的群体领导人的言论是否会加剧或减少群体间的敌意。例如,如果政治领导人允许白人这样做,他们是否更有可能将自己的种族认同影响到他们的政策偏好?类似的呼吁对非裔美国人和拉丁裔美国人也有效吗?此外,该研究还将探讨,与更明确的呼吁相比,使用间接或暗语的呼吁是否更有效,以及在美国南部,设计成沿着种族界线分裂选民的政治呼吁是否更有效。两个截然不同的实验将嵌入到一个具有全国代表性的互联网调查中,以检验关于群体冲突的假设。这项研究将测试,并有可能修改一些关于政治科学、社会学、社会心理学和传播学领域的种族态度和身份政治的理论。这项工作将探讨种族和族裔特性的偶然性,并设法查明在何种情况下这些特性可以影响政策偏好和其他政治决定。本研究还具有超越推进社会科学文献的意义。随着巴拉克·奥巴马就任美国第44任总统,许多政治观察家预测,美国将进入一个新的“后种族”时代。然而,奥巴马的胜利,加上上述人口结构的变化,可能会使种族和民族在未来更加突出。也有可能一些政治人物有动机利用挥之不去的种族恐惧和怨恨。如果学者们能够更好地理解这些呼吁的可能性和局限性,那么社会将更好地应对分裂的种族言论。
