No. Positive discrimination is a form of affirmative action in various countries' laws and policies. Positive action is another. Positive action is not positive discrimination. Paragraph 2 mentioned merely targeting encouragement for increased participation even if you did not know what positive action meant.
- spacebanana7 2y agoThe text attests to both our interpretations. 1) By saying x is sometimes called y under some circumstances, the text implies x (Affirmative action) is equal to or a subset of y (Positive discrimination) 2) The second paragraph also suggests examples of affirmative action that wouldn’t constitute positive discrimination
- pseudalopex 2y agoThe text would support your interpretation if the article ended after the 1st sentence. And the 1st sentence did not mention positive action.
