Inequality, Power and School Success: Case Studies on Racial Disparity and Opportunity in Education de Gilberto Conchas

Inequality, Power and School Success: Case Studies on Racial Disparity and Opportunity in Education: Routledge Research in Educational Equality and Diversity

Editat de Gilberto Conchas, Michael Gottfried
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 dec 2016
This volume highlights issues of power, inequality, and resistance for Asian, African American, and Latino/a students in distinct U.S. and international contexts. Through a collection of case studies it links universal issues relating to inequality in education, such as Asian, Latino, and African American males in the inner-city neighborhoods, Latina teachers and single mothers in California, undocumented youth from Mexico and El Salvador, immigrant Morrocan youth in Spain, and immigrant Afro-Caribbean and Indian teenagers in New York and in London. The volume explores the processes that keep students thriving academically and socially, and outlines the patterns that exist among individuals—students, teachers, parents—to resist the hegemony of the dominant class and school failure. With emphasis on racial formation theory, this volume fundamentally argues that education, despite inequality, remains the best hope of achieving the American dream.

Recenzii

"In this important new volume, Conchas and Gottfried demonstrate why placing race at the center of analyses of education and inequality is so essential. Rather than reducing racial inequality, education in the US is too often implicated in its reproduction. Through carefully analyzed case studies the authors demonstrate how this occurs and point to what it might take to reverse these patterns. For those interested in advancing the possibility that education can serve as a force for equality and social justice, this book will be an invaluable resource." - Pedro A. Noguera, University of California – Los Angeles, USA
"Schools are a preeminent site for conflict: over inequality, citizenship, social identity, and democracy itself. Inequality, Power, and School Success explores the experience of schooling for distinct groups of racially-identified students. All over the world, but particularly in the United States, these issues of social justice, opportunity, mobility, and indeed national culture, all center on problems of race and racism. If you take educational equality seriously, you must wrestle with this book. Highly recommended for adoption!" - Howard Winant, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
"This is a comprehensive volume bringing together leading scholars in sociology, education, and race. It convincingly documents how inadequate schools, impoverished communities, and a criminalizing system impact education. Its broad scope includes studying teachers as well as students, taking note of gender and immigration status, offering solutions to problems, and extending beyond the educational system in the United States. This groundbreaking volume brings the invisible to the foreground." - Vilma Ortiz, University of California, Los Angeles, USA
