摘要

本文探讨了收入不平等如何助长种族歧视。当收入的影响是代际性的，它就会在父母的收入状况与其子女继承的种族之间产生强烈的相关性。这使得父母的收入状况可以通过求职者的种族来识别，从而使雇主能够歧视低收入群体的种族。如果反歧视政策不能改善收入不平等的状况，那么这些政策就不会有效。减少收入不平等的有效手段是尽量减少造成继承不平等的父母影响。在此背景下，我们将讨论遗赠入学这一歧视性做法的影响。

Inherited inequality and discrimination

This paper examines how income-inequality promotes racial discrimination. When the influence of income is intergenerational, it generates a strong correlation between parental income status and the race that their children inherit. This makes parents' income statuses identifiable through applicants' races and enables employers to discriminate against the races of the low-income group. Antidiscrimination policies may not be effective if they do not improve on income-inequality. An effective means of reducing income-inequality is to minimize the parental influence that causes inherited inequality. The implications of the discriminatory practice of legacy admissions are discussed in this context.
