| Abstract | Since 1790, the US government has conducted a decennial census of the nation's population and its various ethno-racial subgroups. The official names for these subgroups have direct and significant consequences for the implementation and regulation of public policy at the national, state and local levels of governance. This paper first provides a general overview of the development of the language policies governing the selection, definition and standardisation of the US Census's modern system of racial and ethnic nomenclature. This is followed by an in-depth look at the recent review and revision of these language policies regarding specific terminology. (Contains 22 notes.) (As Provided). |
