Abstract

This paper proposes to demonstrate that affirmative action in Brazil, in the context of the public university, originally claimed by the black segment, ended providing a consistent social byproduct that benefited other ethnic-racial segments. For this purpose, we performed an analysis of indicators on the issue, which could infer the authors' conclusions. In this sense, the term "social byproduct" shall be understood as an extension of benefits to others social groups that historically doesn’t suffer effective disadvantages in Brazil. This is an artifact conceptual which has two components: the first stem from the essence of the ideological debate on the subject and the other has a perverse nature, because it transfers the vacancies of "racial quotas" unfilled for "social quotas".
