The Future Is Ours

by Jerzy N. Kosinski · 1960

The Future Is Ours: Minority Politics, Political Behavior, and the Multiracial Era of American Politics provides a data-based examination of how the shifting demographic landscape of the United States—specifically the rise of a 'majority-minority' population—impacts American politics. The authors analyze how racial and ethnic minorities influence political participation, voting preferences, policy opinions, and legislative representation. The book argues that demographic changes are at a tipping point for the two-party system and explores how the integration of these new voters into existing institutions will shape the future of the American polity.
