摘要

从2002年到2018年，美国少数族裔隔离公立学校的比例大约翻了一番，但白人隔离学校的比例下降速度更快。由于社会乘数效应，随着时间的推移，父母根据种族构成选择学校所引发的内生隔离原则上会使隔离的所有其他决定因素相形见绌。然而，我们发现西班牙裔移民带来的人口结构变化是这些趋势的最大驱动力。这些发现在城市地区尤为明显，这些地区经历了最大的种族隔离变化，政策制定者最担心种族隔离的有害影响。

Explaining Recent Trends in US School Segregation

From 2002 to 2018, the fraction of minority-segregated public schools in the United States roughly doubled, but the fraction of White-segregated schools decreased at an even faster rate. Endogenous segregation fueled by parents choosing schools on the basis of their racial compositions can in principle dwarf all other determinants of segregation over time because of social multiplier effects. However, we find that demographic change from Hispanic immigration has been the biggest driver of these trends. These findings are particularly pronounced in urban areas, which experienced the largest changes in segregation and are where policy makers are most concerned about the pernicious effects of segregation.
