Grad Letter Grade
Description:
This course will use the tools of economics, and draw on empirical research from economics, to explore issues around racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in the United States. We will consider questions such as: Why are there persistent gaps in labor market outcomes across groups? Why are there persistent differences across groups in educational attainment and opportunities? What drives the dramatic underrepresentation of minority groups and women in government, and to what extent does this impact the distribution of government spending? For each of these issues, we will consider the impact of policy on reducing, or in some cases exacerbating, these disparities.
