Mange mener, at indirekte diskrimination i sig selv er uretfærdig, fordi den på disproportional vis stiller bestemte grupper værre. I denne artikel rejser jeg to spørgsmål: 1) Hvad vil det sige at stille en gruppe værre, og 2) hvilke grupper er det relevant at interessere sig for, når vi stiller spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt en given praksis er indirekte diskriminerende? Jeg viser, at det er vanskeligt at besvare de to spørgsmål på en måde, der både indfanger den måde, vi normalt tænker om indirekte diskrimination på og samtidig indebærer, at indirekte diskrimination er uforenelig med de moralske hensyn, der begrunder det synspunkt, at indirekte diskrimination er moralsk problematisk. I den sidste del af artiklen forklarer jeg, hvorfor der ikke følger af artiklens negative konklusion – at indirekte diskrimination ikke i sig selv er uretfærdig – at vi skal undlade at mindske eller forbyde indirekte diskrimination.
