The directive on the fight against racial and ethnic discrimination is heading in the right direction. In particular, it provides for the reversal of the burden of proof, the gradual establishment of positive discrimination – more effective than simple theoretical equality – and the recognition of indirect discrimination.
La directive concernant la lutte contre la discrimination raciale et ethnique va dans ce sens en prévoyant notamment le renversement de la charge de la preuve, la mise en place progressive de la discrimination positive - plus efficace que la simple égalité théorique - ainsi que la reconnaissance de la discrimination indirecte.
