Rootedness, Racialization, and Resistance
Häftad, Engelska, 2022

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The Spanish Language in the United States addresses the rootedness of Spanish in the United States, its racialization, and Spanish speakers’ resistance against racialization. This novel approach challenges the "foreigner" status of Spanish and shows that racialization victims do not take their oppression meekly. It traces the rootedness of Spanish since the 1500s, when the Spanish empire began the settlement of the new land, till today, when 39 million U.S. Latinos speak Spanish at home. Authors show how whites categorize Spanish speaking in ways that denigrate the non-standard language habits of Spanish speakers—including in schools—highlighting ways of overcoming racism.

Del 4 - Higher Education in Critical Perspective: Practices and Policies
Experience of Neoliberal Education

The college experience is increasingly positioned to demonstrate its value as a worthwhile return on investment. Specific, definable activities, such as research experience, first-year experience, and experiential learning, are marketed as delivering precise skill sets in the form of an individual educational package.Through ethnography-based analysis, the contributors to this volume explore how these commodified `experiences' have turned students into consumers and given them the illusion that they are in control of their investment. They further reveal how the pressure to plan every move with a constant eye on a demonstrable return has supplanted traditional approaches to classroom education and profoundly altered the student experience.

As neoliberal market policies become increasingly pervasive beyond economics, the concept of diversity has expanded from corporations to universities and colleges. By focusing on how neoliberal diversity operates at one small liberal arts college, author Bonnie Urciuoli explores the relationship between higher education and corporate practices, how liberal arts colleges recruit diverse students, and how those students’ lives are institutionally organized. Far from being synonymous with race or other forms of social difference, she finds, diversity is an institutional construct frequently contrasting with the reality of students’ lives within these educational spaces.
