Resumen: |
Este libro presenta una serie de análisis de polÃticas educativas (principalmente en el Reino Unido, pero también en Europa) investigadas por un equipo de cientÃficos sociales que comparten un compromiso con la justicia social y la equidad en la educación. Exploramos lo que significa la justicia social en la polÃtica y la práctica educativas, y cómo impacta en nuestra comprensión tanto de la "ciencia de la educación" como del "bien público". Utilizando un enfoque social constructivista, el libro sostiene que la justicia social requiere un análisis particular y crÃtico del significado de meritocracia y de la forma en que este término orienta las polÃticas educativas hacia un tratamiento del aprendizaje como una competencia, en la que muchos jóvenes son construidos como "perdedores". ''. Discutimos cuántos términos en educación están esencializados y tienen significados especÃficos y diferentes para grupos sociales particulares, y cómo esto puede crear problemas tanto en los métodos de encuesta cuantitativa como en la determinación de qué es "el bien público". Discutimos la justicia social a través de una variedad de caracterÃsticas sociales que se cruzan, incluida la clase social, la etnia y el género, tal como se aplican en todo el espectro de polÃticas educativas, desde los primeros años hasta la educación de posgrado. Examinamos las formas en que los jóvenes construyen sus identidades y las implicaciones de esto para comprender el "bien público" en la práctica educativa. Consideramos que es responsabilidad de los investigadores educativos reconocer estas cuestiones y ofrecer ejemplos de investigación con tal compromiso. Concluimos considerando cómo la polÃtica educativa podrÃa contribuir a un bien público socialmente justo, equitativo e inclusivo. |

Summary : |
This book presents a series of analyses of educational policies – largely in the UK, but some also in Europe – researched by a team of social scientists who share a commitment to social justice and equity in education. We explore what social justice means, in educational policy and practice, and how it impacts on our understanding of both 'educational science' and 'the public good'. Using a social constructivist approach, the book argues that social justice requires a particular and critical analysis of the meaning of meritocracy, and of the way this term turns educational policies towards treating learning as a competition, in which many young people are constructed as 'losers'. We discuss how many terms in education are essentialised and have specific, and different, meanings for particular social groups, and how this may create issues in both quantitative survey methods and in determining what is 'the public good'. We discuss social justice across a range of intersecting social characteristics, including social class, ethnicity and gender, as they are applied across the educational policy spectrum, from early years to postgraduate education. We examine the ways that young people construct their identities, and the implications of this for understanding the 'public good' in educational practice. We consider the responsibilities of educational researchers to acknowledge these issues, and offer examples of researching with such a commitment. We conclude by considering how educational policy might contribute to a socially just, equitable and inclusive public good. |
