This course aims to strengthen students' understanding of how race, class, gender, disability, ethnicity, nationality, culture, sexuality, religion, and age interact with public policies to influence various economic outcomes. We analyze the evolution of economic consequences on populations that have been historically disadvantaged. Specifically, we discuss how governments (especially the U.S. government) and societies deal with diversity and their level of discrimination vs inclusivity of different groups over time and across space.
