女性和少数族裔进入了收入更高的职业，但她们的整体收入仍然落后于白人男性。为什么？罗伯特·考夫曼考察了全国范围内所有就业水平和职业的工人，研究了偏见和工作场所歧视继续困扰劳动力市场的意想不到的方式。考夫曼探索了种族和性别群体被分类到“合适的”工作岗位的机制，展示了由此产生的种族隔离如何削弱收入。他还使用种族-性别排队和细分市场理论的创新整合来展示经济和社会背景如何塑造这些过程。他的权威分析揭示了种族、性别、刻板印象和贬值是如何相互作用造成收入差距的，揭示了继续将妇女和少数族裔抛在后面的恶性循环。
Women and minorities have entered higher-paying occupations, but their overall earnings still lag behind those of white men. Why? Looking nationwide at workers across all employment levels and occupations, Robert Kaufman examines the unexpected ways that prejudice and workplace discrimination continue to plague the labor market. Kaufman probes the mechanisms by which race and sex groups are sorted into "appropriate" jobs, showing how the resulting segregation undercuts earnings. He also uses an innovative integration of race-sex queuing and segmented-market theories to show how economic and social contexts shape these processes. His authoritative analysis reveals how race, sex, stereotyping, and devaluation interact to create earnings disparities, shedding new light on a vicious cycle that continues to the leave women and minorities behind.
