Many explanations have been offered for the differences. Some believe that those with less fortunate outcomes are victims of genetics. Others believe that those who are less fortunate are victims of the more fortunate. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eDiscrimination and Disparities\u003c\/i\u003e gathers a wide array of empirical evidence from to challenge the idea that different economic outcomes can be explained by any one factor, be it discrimination, exploitation or genetics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It is readable enough for people with no prior knowledge of economics. Yet the empirical evidence with which it backs up its analysis spans the globe and challenges beliefs across the ideological spectrum. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The point of \u003ci\u003eDiscrimination and Disparities\u003c\/i\u003e is not to recommend some particular policy \"fix\" at the end, but to clarify why so many policy fixes have turned out to be counterproductive, and to expose some seemingly invincible fallacies--behind many counterproductive policies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Discrimination and Disparities | Thomas Sowell | Hardcover | 9781541645608 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks F 1726475","offer_id":48167471644824,"sku":"1726475","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/517w7n8SgkL.jpg?v=1771947336","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/discrimination-and-disparities","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
