Race-and-politics scholarship remains largely descriptive and undertheorized

Evidence

Yet it is clear that within the main strands of literature in this field little attempt has been made to develop a theoretical discussion of the processes through which ideas about race gain political salience and have an impact on patterns of political mobilization. Most studies have been largely descriptive and undertheorized, particularly as they have not sought in any meaningful sense to provide a theoretical framework for the analysis of race and political action. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 2182
