The British Dental Association raised concerns that the 25 new dental training places being created at the University of East Anglia’s school is unlikely to do much to end the so-called “dental desert”.

Economists like to draw triangles. In trade, you can’t have high tariffs, no retaliation, and unchanged prices. In monetary policy, you can’t fix interest rates, fix the money supply, and promise perfect stabilization. In hiring under unequal starting conditions, there is a similar triangle that most debates about fairness in hiring glide past. When firms turn to algorithms to allocate scarce jobs, they are pulled toward three attractive goals: strong efficiency (pick the candidates most likely to perform well), strong representation (make outcomes roughly mirror group shares), and strong formal neutrality (apply the same rules mechanically to everyone). The problem…
