Handbook of employment discrimination research : Rights and realities
This volume contains acollection of original papersbyleadinglegal scholars and social scientists that develop new perspectivesonanti-discriminationlaw, with anemphasison employment discrimination. The volume is introduced by three papers that broadly an-alyze anti-discriminationlaw andits relationshiptoexisting socialscience. we write as lawyer-sociologists attemptingto advance a socio-legalunderstanding of employment discrimination law. We examine the debate amongcom-petingconceptions of the anti-discrimination law which argue that the law has becometoo expansive, is too weak, or is too reliant on litigation. After review in gdoctrinal developments in the law and trends in claiming behavior before the EEOC and the federal courts through the 1990s to present, we apply the concept of the pyramid ofdisputes to discrimination claims to assess the ongoingdebate. Although the analysis demonstrates that there are significant gaps in our knowledge of how employment dis-crimination claims arise and are dealt with, it also suggests that the current system isdramatically under-inclusive of potentialclaimants.
