abstract: 'As a vast and ever-growing body of social-scientific research shows,
|
||||
|
||||
discrimination remains pervasive in the United States. In education,
|
||||
|
||||
work, consumer markets, healthcare, criminal justice, and more, Black
|
||||
|
||||
people fare worse than whites, women worse than men, and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
Moreover, the evidence now convincingly demonstrates that this
|
||||
|
||||
inequality is driven by discrimination. Yet solutions are scarce. The
|
||||
|
||||
best empirical studies find that popular interventions-like diversity
|
||||
|
||||
seminars and antibias trainings-have little or no effect. And more
|
||||
|
||||
muscular solutions-like hiring quotas or school busing-are now regularly
|
||||
|
||||
struck down as illegal. Indeed, in the last thirty years, the Supreme
|
||||
|
||||
Court has invalidated every such ambitious affirmative action plan that
|
||||
|
||||
it has reviewed. This Article proposes a novel solution: Big Data
|
||||
|
||||
Affirmative Action. Like old-fashioned affirmative action, Big Data
|
||||
|
||||
Affirmative Action would award benefits to individuals because of their
|
||||
|
||||
membership in protected groups. Since Black defendants are
|
||||
|
||||
discriminatorily incarcerated for longer than whites, Big Data
|
||||
|
||||
Affirmative Action would intervene to reduce their sentences. Since
|
||||
|
||||
women are paid less than men, it would step in to raise their salaries.
|
||||
|
||||
But unlike old-fashioned affirmative action, Big Data Affirmative Action
|
||||
|
||||
would be automated, algorithmic, and precise. Circa 2021, data
|
||||
|
||||
scientists are already analyzing rich datasets to identify and quantify
|
||||
|
||||
discriminatory harm. Armed with such quantitative measures, Big Data
|
||||
|
||||
Affirmative Action algorithms would intervene to automatically adjust
|
||||
|
||||
flawed human decisions-correcting discriminatory harm but going no
|
||||
|
||||
further. Big Data Affirmative Action has two advantages over the
|
||||
|
||||
alternatives. First, it would actually work. Unlike, say, antibias
|
||||
|
||||
trainings, Big Data Affirmative Action would operate directly on unfair
|
||||
|
||||
outcomes, immediately remedying discriminatory harm. Second, Big Data
|
||||
|
||||
Affirmative Action would be legal, notwithstanding the Supreme Court''s
|
||||
|
||||
recent case law. As argued here, the Court has not, in fact, recently
|
||||
|
||||
turned against affirmative action. Rather, it has consistently demanded
|
||||
|
||||
that affirmative action policies both stand on solid empirical ground
|
||||
|
||||
and be well tailored to remedying only particularized instances of
|
||||
|
||||
actual discrimination. The policies that the Court recently rejected
|
||||
|
||||
have failed to do either. Big Data Affirmative Action can easily do
|
||||
|
||||
both.'
