Abstract:

This paper seeks to build on the burgeoning literature on social diversity theory (Hero 1998) by making a conceptual and a methodological distinction between social diversity?s direct and indirect influence on policy outcomes. I argue that social diversity influences outcomes directly through inter-minority resource competition and indirectly through majority/minority competition that influences political processes. I develop a set of hypotheses and test social diversity?s direct and indirect effects on Latino and African-American access to elite public universities in 45 states using a set of pooled cross sectional time series models. The findings indicate that high numbers of Asian-Americans and Latinos have a negative effect on African-American access. The findings also find that social diversity, interacted with a number of political variables (political competition, political culture) affect minority enrollment levels.
