Diversity and Community in the Academy: Affirmative Action in Faculty Appointments - Issues in Academic Ethics
Celia Wolf-Devine
In the wake of court rulings that have forced university administrators to reevaluate affirmative action policies, this balanced, thoughtful book examines three typical defenses of those policies: that affirmative action compensates for past discrimination; that it provides role models and ensures diversity; and that it corrects for systemic bias against women and racial minorities.
