De jure segregation is a separation that is enforced by rule of law, such as pre-civil rights laws that mandated that persons of color sit in separate areas or use differing facilities. The landmark Supreme Court ruling, Brown v Board of Education highlighted the importance of the distinction between defacto segregation, which is segregation by personal preference, and de jure segregation.
Segregation de facto is when one faction separates themselves from another out of choice rather than by segregation de jure, which is when the separation is enforced by rule of law.
De jure segregation is created by laws; de facto segregation is created by social conditions.Today, de facto segregation is enforced by socioeconomic status, which affects educational and employment opportunities.
De Jure Segregation is racial separation which is forced by specific laws. De facto segregation is generally caused by socioeconomic conditions, not by statute.
De facto segregation is a law requiring specific segregation practices. At one time, there were laws saying that black and white races had to use different restroom facilities. Du jour segregation is general or common practice among people regarding segregation. The club scene has different ethnic patrons going to different clubs.
For the most part, it was not de jure (i.e, a matter of law) but de facto (a matter of fact).
When segregation is ordered by law, it is called de jure segregation; when created by social or environmental circumstances it is called de facto segregation. De facto means "existing in fact," without being mandated by law.
For the most part, it was not de jure (i.e, a matter of law) but de facto (a matter of fact).
De jure means "by law" and de facto means "as a matter of fact." So De jure segregation is segregation required by law (such as a school being segregated because there is a law requiring it), whereas de facto segregation is more just by chance (such as settlement patterns in a city leading to segregated schools).De facto segregation is segregation by fact or circumstance. Very often this is not a conscious choice. A good example is found in neighborhoods, frequently there is a white neighborhood or a black neighborhood, this concentration can lead to schools that are predominately one race. (Xe facto is latin for by fact.)"De facto" means the person who is serving in that position, or as "in fact"; whereas "de jure" means the person who is legally entitled to perform that function, or "by law," and has the right to perform a function or hold an office. It is important to note that hundreds of years ago, women did not have certain rights, and their husbands would perform the functions for them, although there are other latin terms for that.
De jure means decided by law, and de facto is decided by 'fact' or, 'real life'. When you decide not to wear a jacket when it rains, no policeman will arrest you and have you tried and a judge sentence to 'be cold'; that is a 'de facto' result of your decision.
De facto segregation results from social and economic factors, such as housing discrimination, unequal access to education, and unequal economic opportunities. It is not mandated by law like de jure segregation, but it still leads to the separation of racial and ethnic groups in society.
