administration
The first federal policy of race-conscious affirmative action was the
Revised Philadelphia Plan, which required government contractors to set "
goals and timetables" for integrating and diversifying their workforce.
The strides that the Johnson presidency made in ensuring equal opportunity
in the workforce were further picked up by his successor Nixon. In 1969 the
Nixon administration initiated the "Philadelphia Order". It was regarded as
the most forceful plan thus far to guarantee fair hiring practices in
construction jobs.
这个项目是Johnson开始的,但是放在那里没动,一直到Nixon,开始制定详细的计划运
行。他的主要目的是制造白人工人阶级和黑人之间的矛盾,来为GOP赢得选票。Nixon真
是太精明了,GOP的大战略家。
President Nixon shrewdly played this "Southern strategy" by promoting
affirmative action in employment, a "wedge" issue that later Republicans
would exploit to split the Democratic coalition of white working class and
black voters. (See John Skrentny, The Ironies of Affirmative Action (U
Chicago Press, 1996)). |
