这是一个奖项下的赠款为改善博士论文研究计划。 这项研究将把基于经济结果的就业歧视理论与基于体制进程的就业歧视理论联系起来，以便更全面地说明法律对不断变化的就业歧视模式的直接和间接影响。 分析是基于民事案件的就业歧视的国家使用现有的和重新编码的数据，新收集的数据，从历史上的国家就业歧视政策，就业不平等的措施，使用人口普查数据。 所涉时间为1960年至1990年。 %%% 这项研究将有助于反歧视法对妇女和黑人工作经验的可变影响的社会学理解，并增加法律，社会运动和社会分层的社会学理论和研究。 调查结果将有助于决策者利用法律的手段纠正歧视性做法。 除了通过研究取得的科学成果外，该奖项还将在物质上帮助一位非常有前途的学生完成博士研究。论文 因此，它有助于国家未来的科学人才和下一代社会科学家的全面培训。

This is an award under the Grants for Improving Doctoral Dissertation Research Program. The study will link theories of employment discrimination based on economic outcomes with those based on institutional processes to present a more comprehensive picture of the direct and indirect effects of laws on changing patterns of employment discrimination. Analysis is based on civil cases of employment discrimination by states using existing and recoded data, newly assembled data from histories of state employment discrimination policies, and measures of employment inequality using census data. The time covered is from 1960 to 1990. %%% This study will contribute to sociological understanding of the variable affects of anti-discrimination laws on the work experiences of women and blacks and add to theory and research in the sociology of law, social movements, and social stratification. The findings will be of use to policy-makers concerned with the use of legal means to remedy discriminatory practices. In addition to the scientific gains to be achieved by the research, this award will materially assist a highly promising student in completing research for the Ph.D. dissertation. Thus it contributes to the future scientific manpower of the nation and the thorough training of the next generation of social scientists.
