Details	The course examines the role discrimination plays in creating economic barriers in the U.S. economy for the racially defined minorities, and women. The negative impact of discrimination towards these groups is first examined in historical context. Following that, Neoclassical, Institutionalist, and Marxian models of labor market discrimination are critically examined. In light of the historical and theoretical discussion we examine the policies proposed to eliminate discrimination. Prerequisite ECON 201. Co-listed as POLS 312. (Offered Sp semester)
