Differences in the Principles and Policies of National Equality in the Field of Education: Comparative analysis of relevant preferential policies between China and the United States

摘要

National equality is a basic principle that persists in China's legal and social development. Equality in education is also the foundation. Economic development has not reduced ethnic differences. Although the right to equality in education is legally stipulated, de facto inequality still exists. Although the implementation of a series of preferential policies plays a certain role in educational equality, it breeds the emergence of "reverse discrimination". Under the trend of the popularization of education, how to balance the formal equality and the substantive equality of education is a transition inclination or an appropriate guarantee. This paper attempts to draw inspiration for the equality of ethnic education in China by comparing the policies and measures adopted by China and the United States in higher education for ethnic minorities.
