Opis

Why has schooling failed to deliver on its promise of reducing economic and social disparities? This volume addresses this and other questions, taking the reader into a variety of nations and cultural settings. It illuminates how schools can reduce or reinforce the layered stratification of society, even in nations with non-western traditions.
