Discriminatory Consequences of Non-Discriminatory Standards
This paper shows that environmental, labour and other standards can be effective strategic policy instruments even when they are strictly non-discriminatory. This is because standards can be set which the foreign producer optimally chooses not to meet, allowing the domestic producer to monopolize the standardized segment of the market. Thus, it is important for policy to consider how much scope...
متن کاملLearning Non-Discriminatory Predictors
We consider learning a predictor which is non-discriminatory with respect to a “protected attribute” according to the notion of “equalized odds” proposed by Hardt et al. [2016]. We study the problem of learning such a non-discriminatory predictor from a finite training set, both statistically and computationally. We show that a post-hoc correction approach, as suggested by Hardt et al, can be h...
متن کاملDiscriminatory Transfer
Weobserve standard transfer learning can improve prediction accuracies of target tasks at the cost of lowering their prediction fairness – a phenomenon we named discriminatory transfer. We examine prediction fairness of a standard hypothesis transfer algorithm and a standardmulti-task learning algorithm, and show they both su er discriminatory transfer on the real-world Communities and Crime da...

We develop a model of discriminatory opportunism in which firms can treat all employees fairly, take advantage of all employees, or only take advantage of a subpopulation of employees. If employees believe that an act of opportunism against any employee portends opportunism against all employees, concern for re...
