Affirmative Action and the Principle of Equality
Sasseen, Robert F.
Studies in Philosophy and Education, 9, 3, 275-95, Spr 76
A critical look is taken at affirmative action, which is called a preferential policy of proportional employment. The author suggests that affirmative action actually denies citizens equality of opportunity, writing racial distinctions into law and holding contempt for Blacks and other pretended beneficiaries.
