This paper suggests a bridge between stochastic dominance and discrimination measurement. Discrimination orderings are defined and illustrated through discrimination curves, in the same spirit as stochastic dominance. The main result generalizes the equivalence between Generalized Lorenz dominance and second order stochastic dominance.
