GILIBERTI, Luca. Educational system, youth and social inequalities: a study in Dominican schools. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2013, vol.11, n.1, pp.151-162. ISSN 1692-715X.
The present article analyzes the social inequalities that are generated by the educational system by exploring the situation in the Dominican Republic. Its empirical material is based on the results of an ethnographic study, which was carried out in different schools in Santo Domingo, and is extended by secondary data. Therefore, the study provides a broad overview of the educational situation in the Caribbean country, focussing upon the discourse of the insurmountable inequalities which are constructed between different youth groups and their respective schools. These processes, which in particular affect the poorest groups, jeopardize the right to education for all youth in an education system which is notably differentiated in terms of social class and racial identity.
