A study of regional history based on culture and intra-regional relationships, this collection of essays marks a difference in approach and focus on the part of the author himself, who explores questions of historiography (his lengthy postscripts give extensive commentary on the 1982 edition). Arguing for the need for interdisciplinary studies in Southeast Asian Studies, as well as for the necessity of history to establish a basis for such study, Wolters focuses upon classical Southeast Asia (whereas almost all other historical studies focus on modern or contemporary Southeast Asia). He explor

Dealing candidly with matters usually considered taboo in academic discourse, Wolters argues that the Supreme Court acted correctly and in accordance with public sentiment in Brown but that it later took a wrong turn by equating desegregation with integration. Wolters explains that while Brown called for desegregation by requiring that schools deal with students on a racially nondiscriminatory basis, subsequent decisions Green, Swann, Keyes required actual integration through racial balancing. Wolters challenges statistics that support the results of racial balancing by describing how school d

In Du Bois and His Rivals, Raymond Wolters provides a distinctive biography of W. E. B. Du Bois, a great pioneer of the American civil rights movement. Readers are able to follow the outline of Du Bois’s life, but the book’s main emphasis is on discrete scenes in his life, especially the controversies that pitted Du Bois against his principal black rivals.
