This collection of essays will help readers disentangle the complex relationship between school choice and student diversity in the post- Brown era. Presenting the views of the most prominent researchers of school choice reforms in the United States, this book argues that the contexts under which school choice plans are adopted are actually responsible for shaping student diversity within schools.
