This book, written by two leading Swedish economists and first
published in 1984, constitutes a threefold contribution to the
expanding field of economic discrimination. In the first place, it
summarizes different approaches to the economics of discrimination,
from the beginning of the British debate on equal pay in the 1890s
onwards. Secondly, the book contains analytical chapters that,
taking the theory originated by Gary Becker as their point of
departure, critique and develop the Beckerian theory in a number of
ways; in particular, the phenomenon known as crowding is
investigated in different models. Finally, the theories thus
developed are applied to a concrete case of discrimination: that of
apartheid in South Africa. This is a fascinating title that will be
of value to any economics students researching the development of
discrimination theory during the twentieth century in particular.
