| Summary: | This document analyzes the attention given by the State to the cultural and linguistic
diversity in urban elementary schools with indigenous alumni. This initiative was undertaken
in 1998 by the State of Nuevo León in Northeastern Mexico. The analysis of this
educational program in Nuevo León shows that the elimination of indigenous languages
and ethnic de-characterization in urban contexts are the product of interculturalization in
the school between the political reform from the State and racism. The core questions are:
Under which circumstances did this program emerge? What are the arguments on which
it was built? How is this intervention taking place? Which factors influence the course that
it is taking? Which have been its weaknesses, and how has it been successful? |
