520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "In its first national census, the young American republic not only counted its population; it racially classified it. From 1790 to 1990, the nation's demographic base changed from one decennial census to the next, and so too did the racial categories on offer. Always, however, the government held fast to two premises: First, it makes policy sense to put every American into one and only one of a limited number of discrete race groups, with the decennial census being the primary vehicle by which the counting and classifying should take place. Second, when policy treats Americans differently depending on what race they belong to, it should make use of this government classification." (DAEDALUS) This article examines the U.S. government's racial classification system, how the racial and ethnic categories used evolved over time, and what changes need to be made.
