Abstract

The impact of neoliberal policies on the dismantling of the Welfare State in Western nations that we see today, with the consequent attack on the public school and the succulent drainage of its funding, has particularly perverse effects on the education of certain groups. Poor children, of minority races / ethnicities and with a migrant background are at greater risk of social exclusion, of attending segregated schools, of being labeled as having special needs, of presenting worse school results and greater risks of dropping out of school (WILKIN ET AL., 2011; KRASZEWSKA, 2011). The work Culture and power in the classroom: Educational bases for the schooling of bicultural students, by Antonia Darder, denounces, in a courageous and uncompromising way, the situation of these children (with emphasis on the USA), scalping the structural bases that explain the their situation of exclusion from the right to progressive, democratic, inclusive education, valuing diversity, emancipating and transforming.
