Description

It is the writer's contention that there are existing weaknesses in the empirical literature on ghetto riots. One of the most serious weaknesses rests in the fact that many of the theories and/or assumptions put forth in attempts to explain aspects of urban rioting lack careful and rigorous empirical testing. An attempt will be made to examine systematically research material in the area of urban riots for the purpose of clarifying and testing several commonplace theories and/or assumptions. In the final analysis, this study will attempt to answer three basic questions: What theories have been offered to explain the emergence and evolution of rioting? Wjat is the relationship between the degree of riot severity and the level of black political representation? What did the riots accmplish for Black Americans?
