Anissa Joseph (PhD candidate) and Professor Juan Tellez, along with co-author Nura Sedqie, recently published an article in the Journal of Politics in Latin America, titled "Who Should Benefit from Group-Based Quotas? Experimental Evidence from Brazil". Group-based quotas and affirmative action policies are common in many parts of the world. A large literature has focused on public debates over the perceived fairness of these policies. Joseph et al. focus on highly diverse countries like Brazil, where debates instead turn on which groups should benefit and how to establish who counts as a member of those groups.
