34.036 - Ghetto Schooling 20 Years Later: New Directions in the Study of the Political Economy of Urban Education
Fri, April 28, 4:05 to 6:05pm, Grand Hyatt San Antonio, Floor: Second Floor, Lone Star Ballroom Salon ESession Type: Symposium
Abstract
In commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the publication of Jean Anyon’s seminal Ghetto Schooling, this panel explores new directions in the study of political economy in education. Anyon’s work provided a generation of critical scholars theoretically rich, empirically grounded models that both revealed the reproductive functions of school and linked schools to their larger political economic context. However, the current historical moment and recent developments in neoliberal school reform call for extensions of Marxist political economy and a primary frame. Papers in the session present on rich empirical work and new theorizations drawing on various critical theories of race, sociology, urban studies, and other fields in order to advance the study of the political economy of urban education.
