An Alternative Theoretical Perspective on Race and Voluntary Participation
Abstract
In many studies of race & voluntary participation, the theoretical
framework utilized focuses on motivation & SES as the key
variables that explained racial differences in rates of voluntary
participation within instrumental organizations. It is proposed here
that organizational characteristics & typology are significantly
related to the frequency of voluntary participation by black
Americans. Efforts to increase such participation by blacks must first
change the organizational characteristics that delimit participation.
