Black Pioneers, Intermetropolitan Movers, and Housing Desegregation
The Diverging Paths of Black-White Segregation in Urban America, 1970-1990
Measures of Black-White housing segregation show striking uniformity across metropolitan areas in 1970 and very uneven—sometimes quite large—declines in the 1970s and 1980s. We argue that after 1970, Black households were more likely to move into neighborhoods far from existing Black enclaves and that when they did so in substantial numbers, metropolitan-level segregation declined significantly. We further argue that the volume of Black migration…
Moving toward Integration: The Past and Future of Fair Housing
Reducing residential segregation has proven to be the best way to reduce racial inequality in employment, earnings, test scores, and longevity. Moving toward Integration explains why racial segregation has been resilient, and how public policy, aligned with demographic trends, can achieve housing integration within a generation
Structural versus ethnic dimensions of housing segregation
Racial residential segregation is still very high in many American cities. Some portion of segregation is attributable to socioeconomic differences across racial lines (what we call structural factors); some portion is caused by purely racial factors, such as housing market discrimination and preferences for the race of one’s neighbors. Past attempts to measure the structural component of segregation have generally focused on only 1 socioeconomic…
The misunderstood consequences of Shelley v. Kraemer
The Tributaries to the River
In the field of legal education research, everyone talks about the importance of examining long-term outcomes, but nobody has done much about it-until now. ‘Michigan's Minority Graduates in Practice’ (Lempert, Chambers, and Adams 2000) is pioneering work, providing the most comprehensive look anyone has yet undertaken at the long-term experiences, achievements, and attitudes of specific law school cohorts. Moreover, it is work done at the highest…

Elevating the Debate on Lawyers and Economic Growth: [Commentary]
My students sometimes complain that law school is too theoretical and that they learn little that can be directly applied to the real world. Imagine my delight, then, when I learned of Stephen Magee's finding that each new law graduate costs the United States economy $2.5 million per year!' What more persuasive evidence could one find, I thought, of the ability of young lawyers to have an immediate impact on the world! Closer examination of Magee…

Why Are There So Many Lawyers? Perspectives on a Turbulent Market
The venerable legal profession has emerged, over the past generation, as one of the nation's fastest growing occupations. In this paper, we suggest that this fact is not mere happenstance, but is part and parcel of other fundamental changes in the “legal services industry.” We attempt to define and clarify these changes by presenting time series data on a number of these developments, including the growth of law as an economic sector, the increas…
