This special issue commemorates and reassesses the educational
effects of the "Brown" decision. The articles are grounded in
theories and methods of several disciplines, including law,
philosophy, economics, political science, sociology, and public
policy. The researchers examine the way the Court frames racial
inequality and whether the proposed remedy is consistent with the
institutional and legal context at the time of the ruling. In
addressing these questions, the authors pay particular attention to
the nature of the constitutional argument, use of social evidence
in shaping judicial decisions, the political economy of policy
development and implementation in addressing racial desegregation,
and the ongoing challenge of ensuring equality of schooling
opportunity for the increasingly diverse student population.
