Studies in Ethnicity, Culture, and Posing the Research Question

This book is a compendium of various papers, §studies, and essays on subjects ranging from the §politics of ethnicity and specific country profiles, §cultural studies with regard to minority issues in §the United States of America (primarily black §politics), and analyses of research in various §settings, such as life experiences with respect to §teaching in live settings, posing a research §question, and narrowing down one''s interests to §specific fields. The aim of this collection is to §perhaps serve as a blueprint to help researchers, §including students at various levels, in gathering §what is involved with scholarly inquiry, focusing on §a particular area to conduct an academic study, for §example. This volume may also serve useful not only §in helping one to develop a hypothesis, but in §finding ways to address and resolve it §successfully. This is simply a sampling of the vast §opportunities available to students to assist them §in satisfying their own curiosity at an academic §level, may serve as a how-to guide in guiding one''s §own research and, ultimately, may perhaps inspire §many people to discover their own true passions in §the process.
