Annotation

How is ethnic prejudice expressed, communicated and shared within dominant in-groups in our society? The study integrates and applies theoretical developments from such disciplines as discourse analysis, cognitive and social psychology, microsociology, and communication. There are chapters on the structures of prejudiced discourse, the sources of prejudiced talk, the cognitive dimension of structures and strategies of ethnic prejudice, the interpersonal communication of racism, and the social and ideological context of prejudice reproduction.
