This work examines variations of the social stratification paradigm in the humanities and social sciences. Extending the boundaries of thematic semblances, this study seeks to exhibit the flexibility, yet commonality of Africana phenomena. Essays in this study explore the content analysis of black economics from an interdisciplinary perspective.
This study seeks to critically examine the field and function of social stratification, with emphasis on Africana phenomena. Phrased another way, this edited volume attempts to study and focus on who gets what and why, with regard to resources and structural application of support. The John Henrik Clarke query is who made this arrangement of leadership in America. Moreover, serving as a reference, this study will assist researchers in contextualizing and thematically examining the structural and resource allocation of disparity exhibited toward Africana people. This manuscript of essays is the first its kind. This study incorporates an interdisciplinary scope to examine the concept of Africana Social Stratification in the subject areas of: history, political science, economics, Africana Studies, and social policy.

James L. Conyers Jr. is director of the African American Studies Program, director of the Center for African American Culture, and university professor of African American Studies at the University of Houston.
