Description

In this book, the authors assert that representative institutions such as legislatures face a diversity paradox: when the size of a minority group increases beyond mere tokenism in representative institutions, it tends to create an unintended backlash toward the minority groups members that emanates from both majority and fellow minority group members. The inclusion of minority group voices in representative institutions is critical in a wide range of political decisions, ranging from legislative gender quotas in the new Iraqi constitution to attempts in the U.S. to increase minority representation through redistricting.
