Affirmative Action in Higher Education

An issue that has intrigued me for quite a while now.

Prof. Tom Weisskopf from the University of Michigan presents his conclusions from a comparative review of the Affirmative Action policies in the US and the "reservation policies" in India.

A really important issue. His book "Affirmative Action in the United States and India: A Comparative Perspective" (Routledge, London, 2004) contains more details.

That will be an interesting read particularly now that even the private sector might be required to reserve some quota for underpriviledged casts
