| 요약 | The history of racial threat theory can be traced back to the works of early conflict theorists. Past literature has determined that racial threat stems from political, economic, and criminal threat perceived by those in the majority. As the minority population increases, those in the majority begin to feel as if their position of power is threatened. Despite the identification of political, economic, and criminal threat as the three sources of racial threat, past studies have focused solely on criminal threat as a source of racial threat. The omission of political and economic threat from previous literature is a shortcoming of past works. In addition, the racial and ethnic typification of crime has been studied as a predictor of public attitudes but has not been examined as a dependent variable. Studies have suggested that the typification of crime can be one of many microprocesses that form the chain between racial threat and the mobilization of social controls to minimize the threat presented by minorities. This dissertation explores the relationship between all three sources of racial threat and the racial typification of crime. The findings suggest that racial threat has a significant effect on racial and ethnic typification, although it does vary based on the source of threat. In addition to this primary analysis, this dissertation examines the mediating effect of racial typification on racial threat and punitive sentiment. The findings suggest that typification does not mediate the effect of racial threat on punitive sentiment. This dissertation also discusses implications for policy, theory, and future research. |
