The Affirmative Action Debate
Editat de George Curryen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 iun 1996
The
Affirmative
Action
Debatecollects
the
leading
voices
on
all
sides
of
this
crucial
dialogue.
A
provocative
range
of
politicians,
researchers,
legal
experts,
and
businesspeople
dispute
the
best
way
to
fight
discrimination.
Their
essays
explore
such
questions
as,
How
did
affirmative-action
policies
come
to
be?
Who
benefits
most
from
them,
and
who
suffers?
How
do
these
programs
work
in
hiring,
contracting,
college
admissions,
and
other
fields?
What
will
recent
Supreme
Court
rulings
and
legislative
initiatives
mean?
And,
most
fundamentally,
does
any
race-conscious
remedy
simply
perpetuate
discrimination?
Recognizing
affirmative
action
as
more
than
a
black-and-white
issue,
this
book
includes
the
voices
of
women,
Latinos,
and
Asian-Americans
who
are
also
affected
but
often
ignored.
A
sourcebook
of
solid
facts
and
surprising
arguments,The
Affirmative
Action
Debateis
the
one
book
you
need
to
understand
and
discuss
the
nation's
sharpest
political
divide.
