Asian Americans and affirmative action policy report online
"This document occupies an unusual space, somewhere between a ponderous academic article and terse commentary that conveys deeply felt sentiments bluntly. On the one hand, the authors have not made the exhaustive effort necessary to conform this document strictly to academic standards. Those interested in more traditional academic treatments are invited to read articles by the individual authors cited in the footnotes. On the other hand, this document goes much further in addressing the genuine complexity of affirmative action and its relationship to Asian Pacific Americans ("APAs") than most political and policy literature to date."
