Ep. 14 Access versus Integration in Education
In this episode of CCYSC Awaaz, Joyeeta Dey and Dr. Amanda Gilbertson discuss their research on desegregation and the common school system in India, specifically in Lucknow. They analyze how a desegregation policy gets translated into an access policy by middle-class actors at various levels - from the state officials to public intellectuals to school leadership to teachers - and read against the grain of how the policy is interpreted by the poor families who avail of it.
Dr. Amanda Gilbertson is a Senior Research Fellow in Anthropology at the University of Melbourne. Her research interests lie in the reproduction and contestation of class and gender inequalities in urban India. She is the author of Within the Limits: Moral Boundaries of Class and Gender in Urban India (Oxford University Press, 2017).
Joyeeta Dey is an independent researcher, with seven years of work experience in the education development space in India. Currently she is working as a research associate for the University of Melbourne. She was an Erasmus Mundus student and also has a Masters in Sociology of Education from University College London - Institute of Education.
