论文摘要
自1950年以来，印度一直在实施世界上最全面的肯定行动计划。向历史上歧视的计划种姓（SC），计划部落（ST）和其他落后阶层（OBC）提供垂直预订。在每个垂直类别中，为其他处境不利的群体（例如妇女和残疾人）提供了横向预订。没有明确定义的程序可以共同实施与垂直预订和OBC取消确定的水平预订。当前正在使用的OBC取消固定和优异储备候选者的顺序过程导致严重的缺点。最重要的是，当前在实践中使用的间接机制不允许储备类别申请人完全表达其偏好。为了克服这些和其他相关的问题，我们为列出了精英管理，垂直和横向保留以及OBC取消确定的机构设计了几种不同的选择规则。我们提出了一种集中的机制，以令人满意地清除印度的匹配市场。
Since 1950, India has been implementing the most comprehensive affirmative action program in the world. Vertical reservations are provided to members of historically discriminated Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC). Horizontal reservations are provided for other disadvantaged groups, such as women and disabled people, within each vertical category. There is no well-defined procedure to implement horizontal reservations jointly with vertical reservation and OBC de-reservations. Sequential processes currently in use for OBC de-reservations and meritorious reserve candidates lead to severe shortcomings. Most importantly, indirect mechanisms currently used in practice do not allow reserve category applicants to fully express their preferences. To overcome these and other related issues, we design several different choice rules for institutions that take meritocracy, vertical and horizontal reservations, and OBC de-reservations into account. We propose a centralized mechanism to satisfactorily clear matching markets in India.
