Primes¶
- Opportunity Asymmetry
- T1: Opportunity asymmetry can reflect past injustice but operate mechanically in the present. Wilson (1987) develops this dynamic for U.S. inner-city poverty: structural features installed by historical exclusion (industrial decline, residential segregation, depleted institutional capacity) continue to constrain action sets even after explicit discriminatory rules are dismantled.
This sourceDevelops the structural-mechanism argument that historical injustice (industrial decline, residential segregation, institutional withdrawal) continues to constrain inner-city opportunity sets mechanically even after explicit discriminatory rules are dismantled.
