Preferences for Discrimination

Abstract

We push two core boundaries of the discrimination literature. First, we revise discrimination through moral lenses and highlight that basic discrimination preferences are missing. Second, we conduct large-scale experiments to evaluate the distribution of individual preferences regarding taste and statistical discrimination based on gender in the UK. We show that moral-driven preferences are heterogenous and widespread, and that their existence modifies our comprehension of the motivations to support and to oppose discrimination. Joint paper with Nickolas Gagnon.
