A response to Argentina's shifting political climate, Global
Liberalism and Elite Schooling in Argentina reveals how elite
schooling encourages the hoarding of educational advantage and
reinforces social inequalities. Presenting Buenos Aires's
Caledonian School as part of the growing scholarly discussion on
elite education in the Global South, Howard Prosser situates the
school's history in concert with that of the state, the region, and
the globe. The book applies new methodologies for the study of
elite schools in globalizing circumstances by fusing ethnographic
fieldwork with archival research and a wealth of secondary sources.
This transdisciplinary approach focuses on the nature of liberalism
as a global ideal, positing that eliteness is sustained by an
economy with its own culture of value and exchange that,
ironically, the scholarship on elites may help perpetuate.
