Eleven historical-ethnographic case studies examine the social and
cultural projects of modern schools, and the contestations,
dramatic and not, that emerge in and around and against them. These
case studies, ranging from Taiwan to South Texas, build upon an
original joining of anthropology, critical education theory, and
cultural studies. The studies advance the concept of cultural
production as a way of understanding the dynamics of power and
identity formation underlying different forms of "education". Using
the concept of the "educated person" as a culture-specific
construct, the authors examine conflicts and points of convergence
between cultural practices and knowledges that are produced in and
out of schools.
