RIVERA SEPULVEDA, Álvaro Andrés e VERGARA ARBOLEDA, Maribel. Rural School versus Urban Expansion: Conflicts and Prospects. Educ. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.24, n.1, pp.71-90. Epub 20-Maio-2021. ISSN 0123-1294. https://doi.org/10.5294/educ.2021.24.1.4.
The article discloses how a public educational institution, located in the peripheral rural area of Bogotá (Colombia), experiences and faces the dynamics that the city’s urban expansion prompts in the school and its surroundings. The study method has a qualitative approach and a descriptive-comprehensive nature. It is based on eight field visits, a review of two institutional documents, and 15 in-depth interviews with local educational agents. The results point to the tensions between “urban” and “rural” as social rather than geographic categories and how the city’s public administration has heightened them. They also show the local community’s prominent position of maintaining the legitimacy of its school territoriality and furthering the peasant culture’s sense of identity and exclusivity.
