Entrepreneurship and the Taste for Discrimination
Originally published in Journal of Evolutionary Economics
This paper analyzes the connection between discrimination and entrepreneurship. The study contends that the entrepreneur is the central mechanism through which inefficiencies associated with discrimination are competed away. In addition to illuminating the mechanism through which existing discrimination tends to be eliminated, we also consider the more difficult case of consumer discrimination.
