Discrimination in Latin America: An Economic Perspectives
Resumen:
Latin America has often been regarded as a region with deep ethnic and class conflicts. The difficulty of assessing this from an economic perspective is two fold: There is little solid, unbiased, and systematic data to provide convincing empirical evidence, and there is a dearth of empirical methods to identify specific discriminatory-based behavior as opposed to related behavior that might only appear to be discriminatory.
This book uses a variety of methodological tools — regression analysis, market tests, field experiments, audit studies, and structural methods — to explore the extent to which discrimination against women and demographic minorities is pervasive in Latin America.
