In its long struggle with this question, the U.S. Supreme Court has treated race-conscious redistricting either as a requirement of political fairness or as an exercise in corrosive racial "as. Cutting through these contradictory positions, Keith Bybee examines the theoretical foundations of the Court's decisions and the ideological controversy those decisions have engendered. He uncovers erroneous assumptions about political identity on both sides of the debate and formulates new terms on which minority representation can be pursued. As Bybee shows, the Court has for the last twenty years encouraged a division between individualist and group concepts of political identity. He demonstrates convincingly that both individualist and group proponents share the misguided notion that political identity is formed prior to and apart from politics itself. According to Bybee, this "mistaken identity" should be abandoned for a more flexible, politically informed understanding of who the "people" really are. Thus, a misdirected debate will be replaced by a more considered discussion in which the people can speak for themselves, even as the Court speaks on their behalf. Engaged in the politics of minority representation, the Court will be able to help citizens articulate and achieve more fruitful forms of political community. 606 $aMinorities$xSuffrage$zUnited States 606 $aProportional representation$zUnited States 606 $aRepresentative government and representation$zUnited States 606 $aElection districts$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zUnited States 615 0$aMinorities$xSuffrage 615 0$aProportional representation 615 0$aRepresentative government and representation 615 0$aElection districts 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 676 $a342.73/053 700 $aBybee$b Keith J.$f1965-$0870011 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996201182403316 996 $aMistaken identity$91942394 997 $aUNISA
