Do schools work differently in deprived and privileged
neighbourhoods? As segregation is on the rise in many cities, this
book explores how different neighbourhood contexts shape public
organisations, by using an innovative approach that combines a
Bourdieusian perspective and new institutional theory. Based on
interviews and ethnographic data from two primary schools in
Berlin, Germany, it shows how local social compositions, symbolic
meanings of urban areas, and neighbourhood-based policy
interventions structure schools. Educational professionals adapt to
these structural differences. The book analyses how teachers'
understandings and practices vary by local context - and what that
means for the reproduction of urban inequality.
