In the press, in local, state, and federal government agencies, in fact, wherever people thrash out the problems of democratic living, the question is being discussed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book offers facts which throw new light on an important issue in the overall problem of racial segregation. Here are the results of a study comparing two kinds of public housing-segregated and non-segregated.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTwo low-rent, public housing projects in which Negroes and whites live as next door neighbors were compared with two similar housing developments in which Negroes and whites are assigned to separate buildings or areas.

The research procedures used are explained, and general conclusions about changing prejudices are offered.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSocial scientists, psychologists, housing officials, and community leaders concerned with the problems not only of housing but of race relations in general will find helpful guidance here.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition to providing much-needed data on an important social problem, the book offers a valuable demonstration of research techniques in social science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Minnesota Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46894722187415,"sku":"9780816659845","price":4608.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780816659845.webp?v=1770326854","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/interracial-housing-a-psychological-evaluation-of-a-social-experiment-9780816659845","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
