Chapter 12 Race And Ethnicity Key Terms

Ethnic groups A social category of people who share a common culture. Racialization A process whereby some social category such as social class or nationality takes on what are perceived in the society to be race characteristics.

Race A group treated as distinct in society on the basis of certain characteristics that have been assigned social importance in society. Racial formation The process by which groups come to be defined as a race.

Dominant group Group that assigns a racial or ethnic group to subordinate status in society is called the dominant group. Minority group Any distinct group in society that shares common group characteristics and is forced to occupy low status because of prejudice and discrimination.

Stereotypes Oversimplified set of beliefs about members of a social group or social stratum that is used to categorize individuals of that group. Salience principle States that we categorize people on the basis of what appears initially prominent and obvious about them.

Stereotype interchangeability Holds that racial, gender, cultural, and class stereotypes, especially negative ones, are often interchangeable among groups. Prejudice The evaluation of a social group, and individuals within that group, based on conceptions about the social group that are held despite facts that contradict it, and that involve prejudgment and misjudgment.
