消除种族歧视委员会（CERD）是在同名国际公约的框架内设立的。该公约于1965年通过，此后已有182个国家批准。在其存在的50年中，其工作方法不断演变。委员会希望记录事实上的歧视，而不仅仅是法律上的歧视，这促使它要求各国配备统计和分类系统，以便能够衡量不同人口群体（包括族裔和种族群体）之间的不平等。我们对1970年至2018年消除种族歧视委员会档案的分析以及对其几位当代专家的访谈表明，尽管专家之间存在内部争论，而且各国普遍不情愿，但要求提供揭示族裔和种族出身等情况的人口数据这一要求是如何确立的。强调这种我们称之为反歧视斗争中的务实转变的方法，有助于丰富关于统计在全球治理中所起作用以及国际组织处理种族问题方式的文献。
The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) was established in the framework of the international Convention of the same name, which was adopted in 1965 and has since been ratified by 182 states. Its working methods have evolved over the course of its fifty years of existence. Its ambition to document de facto rather than solely de jure discrimination led the Committee to request that states equip themselves with statistical and categorization systems allowing for the inequalities between the various population groups – including ethnic and racial groups – to be measured. Our analysis of CERD’s archives from 1970 to 2018 and interviews conducted with several of their present-day experts show how the request for demographic data revealing, among other things, ethnic and racial origins became established despite internal debates among experts and widespread reluctance on the part of states. Underscoring this approach, that we called a pragmatic turn in the fight against discrimination, contributes to the literature on the role played by statistics in global governance as well as that on the way international organizations deal with racial issues.
