Comparison of contemporary public policy to promote racial & ethnic equality in the US & France indicates that civil rights influence interminority relations. US policy is based on rights to resource & emphasizes racial & ethnic differences, interest groups, & distribution of jobs & other social goods. French policy is based on rights to membership & emphasizes commonalities between ethnic minorities, majority group responsibility, & a social contract of interdependence. The US approach to civil rights contributes to interminority conflict because it is primarily a method for influencing institutions rather than, as in France, a model of ideal race & ethnic relations.
