Perspectives that view the racial order as binary, ternary with an undifferentiated middle, or ternary with a stratified middle present different expectations for the social position of multiracial groups. I use a group&#8217;s level of residential segregation as an index of social position. In 2000, multiracial persons lived in neighbourhoods that were more white than the neighbourhoods of single-race minorities, though more diverse than the neighbourhoods of whites. Thus, multiracial groups appear to occupy an intermediate social position relative to blacks and whites, a finding that supports contemporary arguments about shifting colour-lines in the United States and the emergence of a triracial system of stratification. Yet, findings also suggest that the social space between blacks and whites is, itself, racially stratified.<\/p>\n<p>Read or purchase the article <a href=\"http:\/\/www.informaworld.com\/smpp\/ftinterface~content=a930553714~fulltext=713240930~frm=content\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The social position of multiracial groups in the United States: evidence from residential segregation Ethnic and Racial Studies Volume 34, Issue 4 (April 2011) pages 707-729 DOI: 10.1080\/01419870.2010.527355 Pamela R.
