摘要

种族歧视的程度能否迅速改变?什么样的环境和机制使这种改变成为可能?我通过使用收集的数据来研究从2020年1月到2021年6月以色列阿拉伯医生的客户歧视的日常演变，来解决这些问题。结果表明:(1)2020年3月新冠肺炎疫情爆发后，歧视现象大幅下降;(2) 2021年5月爆发的一波民族骚乱产生了相反的效果;(3)媒体对阿拉伯医生抗击疫情贡献的报道促成了第一个变化。(jj91, j12, j15, j44, j82)

Discrimination in Times of Crises and the Role of the Media

Can the extent of ethnic discrimination change quickly, and what circumstances and mechanisms make such changes possible? I address these questions by using scraped data to study the daily evolution of customer discrimination against Arab doctors in Israel from January 2020 to June 2021. Results show that: (1) the outbreak of the coronavirus crisis in March 2020 led to a dramatic decline in discrimination; (2) the eruption of a wave of ethnic riots in May 2021 had the opposite effect; (3) media coverage of the contribution of Arab doctors to the fight against the pandemic helped bring about the first change.
