Die Auserwählten. Die verborgene Geschichte der Zulassung und Exklusion in Harvard, Yale und Princeton
Die Aufgabe des Autors, so wurde es einst gesagt, besteht darin, das Fremdartige als vertraut zu erweisen und das Vertraute als fremd erscheinen zu lassen. In den Vereinigten Staaten unserer Tage gibt es kaum Bräuche, die vertrauter sind, als das jährliche Ritual, mittels dessen unsere führenden Universitäten jährlich Zehntausende von Bewerbungen sortieren, um zu entscheiden, welche Studierenden zu den wenigen Glücklichen gehören, die zugelassen …
Harvard et le critère du mérite
Harvard and the ideology meritocracy. The new president of Harvard, James Bryant Conant, wasted no time in calling for (at the time) bold changes in the university admission policy : he believed that access to higher education should be based on ability rather than inherited privilege. His program of National Scholarships was therefore designed to enable brilliant, however poor, students to obtain their education in the best institutions. Yet, hi…
The Rise and Fall of Affirmative Action at the University of California
IN HIS FASCINATING memoir of the University of California at Berkeley in the 1930s sociologist Robert Nisbet describes the campus, with some exaggeration, as 99.99 percent white. I didn't know of a single American-bonl black student at Berkeley in the thirties, he recalls. Moreover, Nisbet claims, had anyone in the 1930s proposed an affirmative action policy at all like the one that prevailed until the passage of Proposition 209, it would have be…

Polish intellectuals and the origins of solidarity: The making of an oppositional alliance
Looking at the internal dynamics and movement mobilization efforts of the Social Self-Defense Committee (KOR) in Poland in the late 1970s, the study evaluates two dominant theories of the role of intellectuals in political education and social movements—“Leninian” and “Sorelian.” The study combines the examination of KOR's program, structure, and internal divisions, with a quantitative content analysis of its primary channel of communication with…
The Diverted Dream: Community Colleges and the Promise of Educational Opportunity in America, 1900-1985
Les community colleges américains et la politique de l'inégalité
Die «community colleges» und die Politik der Ungleichheit. Das amerikanische junior oder community college (zwei-jährige Ausbildung), dessen Gründung Anfang des Jahrhunderts den Einstieg in Langzeitstudiengänge im Hochschulbereich (vier Jahre) ermöglichen sollte, hat sich in den letzten zwanzig Jahren in eine Institution für berufliche Kurzausbildung verwandelt. Als Erkiärung für diesen Wandel schlagen die Autoren ein «Institutionsmodell» vor, da…

The Diverted Dream: Community Colleges and the Promise of Educational Opportunity in America, 1900-1985
In the twentieth century, Americans have increasingly looked to the schools--and, in particular, to the nation's colleges and universities--as guardians of the cherished national ideal of equality of opportunity. With the best jobs increasingly monopolized by those with higher education, the opportunity to attend college has become an integral part of the American dream of upward mobility. The two-year college--which now enrolls more than four mi…
Occupational Advantage and the Impact of College Rank on Labor Market Outcomes
Most analyses of the effects of college rank on labor market outcomes focus on its average impact across sub-populations and employment situations. The framework adopted in this paper, however, suggests that the effects of college rank may vary by individual characteristics and type of job. Using data from the 1973 Occupational Changes in a Generation Survey, we test three hypotheses suggesting that occupational advantage, as measured either by f…
Pathways to Top Corporate Management
With college attendance approaching universality among senior managers in large American corporations, the issue of the impact of distinctions within the system of higher education in providing access to these positions has become increasingly salient. This study, based on data on the education, social backgrounds, and careers of 2,729 senior managers associated with 208 major corporations, analyzes the relationship between stratification within …
