Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:

Laura Dudley Jenkins is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Cincinnati. Her research and publications focus on social justice policies in the context of culturally diverse democracies, especially India. Jenkins' book Identity and Identification in India: Defining the Disadvantaged (Routledge, 2003, 2009) examines competing demands for affirmative action on the basis of caste, religion, class and gender and the ways the government identifies various categories through the courts, census and official certificates. She was a Fulbright New Century Scholar in South Africa and India.

Michele S. Moses is Professor of Educational Foundations, Policy and Practice at the University of Colorado Boulder. She is a philosopher of education who is centrally concerned with education policy studies, especially as related to race, ethnicity, and equality of educational opportunity. Her current research is aimed at gaining a deeper understanding of the moral roots of the political debates over race-conscious policies that profoundly affect meaningful opportunities for higher education. Dr. Moses is the author of Embracing Race: Why We Need Race-Conscious Education Policy (Teachers College Press, 2002) and was a Fulbright Specialist and New Century Scholar in Brazil.
