In the 1970s and 1980s, programs assisting and preferring businesses owned by women and certain minority group members mushroomed at every level of government. For most of this period, they remained relatively uncontroversial and almost totally unstudied. In 1989, however, the Supreme Court in City of Richmond v. Croson invalidated the use of racial classifications in local public contracting programs unless they were used as temporary narrowly tailored remedies for identified discrimination. Croson has triggered a flurry of litigation across the country and an avalanche of studies commissioned to help jurisdictions preserve their minority business programs.
