Описание: This book examines the consequences of educational segregation from the perspective of social cohesion. It investigates the impact of separating students along socioeconomic lines on student attitudes, dispositions and outlooks considered important for social cohesion as well as on achievement, opening the discussion about the social costs of school segregation. The separation of students based on their social background is a common feature of schooling in many modern systems. This is not only due to the influence of residential segregation but also to the effects of policies promoting educational privatisation, parental choice and student academic selection. By recognising the importance of schooling for citizenship and social integration, the chapters in this book explore how the separation of students throughout their school lives can contribute to the division of citizens beyond school, and how social segregation in school systems affect social cohesion more broadly. By exploring the case of Santiago, Chile, the study is a timely contribution to the understanding of the roots of social division and the role that schools play in creating cohesive societies. The originality of the approach and the evidence presented draw on implications that should be of interest to a wider audience concerned with contemporary discussions on solidarity and its erosion by educational segregation in urban environments.

Описание: Foreword Chapter 1: Introduction: Challenges Facing People of Color in the Healthcare SystemCOVID-19 continues to wreak havoc in the United States for many Americans, but especially bringing disproportionate untold damage to people of color. This situation is not surprising because the U.S. health system operates on the doctrine of 'separate but equal', whereby the dominant group has access to quality health care and the people of color have access to a lesser quality or zero health care. The health system is segregated, whereby there is, by law, the de jure health system for all, but it is the de facto health system in effect that creates a segregated health system, one for the dominant group and one for the people of color. And 'separation' implies and enforces inferiority in health care. Chapter 2: Systemic Racism in Public Health in the United States -- A Systematic Review of the LiteratureThis Chapter carries the findings of the systematic review of the literature on systemic racism in public health in the United States. Systemic racism, conceptually, is White-generated discrimination and other forms of oppression against people of color, that generally spreads throughout the society. The racism is systemic, as it represents racist ideas and practices that become embedded in institutions and networks, and which shape race relations in a White-dominated racial hierarchy. Public health is one of many institutions that racism has subverted. And so, racism drives the social determinants of health (housing, education, employment, etc.), and becomes a barrier to health equity. For instance, profound racial bias in health care has also fast-tracked inequitable health outcomes for people of color; the Institute of Medicine (now the National Academy of Medicine) in 2002 in its study of over 100 clinical studies found that racial minorities are less probable than whites to obtain required services, including clinically essential procedures. Health disparities, discrimination, and residential segregation are by-products of racism, which are usually discussed without showing their links to racism. And so, subverting the impact of racism enables the inequities to persist. The disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on people of color is directly related to systemic racism. Chapter 3: Epidemiology of COVID-19This chapter presents the findings of several systematic reviews and meta-analyses on COVID-19 from scholarly journals over the period December 2019 through TBD 2020. - Origin and disease progression- Restrictive measures- Risk factors for infectious and severe outcomes- Therapeutics as interventions Chapter 4: Disproportionate Burden on Cases, Hospitalizations, and Mortality Among People of ColorThis Chapter presents the data and information on the disproportionate devastation of COVID-19 on people of color in the United States. COVID-19 numbers for laboratory-confirmed cases, hospitalizations, and deaths are still growing, and so the data is still preliminary. For instance, for 131 mainly black counties in the United States, the infection rate is 137.5/100 000 and the death rate is 6.3/100 000. This contagion rate is more than 3-fold higher than that in primarily white counties. Moreover, this death rate for largely black counties is 6-fold higher than in principally white counties. People of color are contracting COVID-19 infection more regularly and dying disproportionately. CDC statistics on COVID-19 cases as of April 19, 2020, suggested that about 34% of African Americans were confirmed cases, equally distributed by about a third in each of these age groups: 18-44, 45-64, and 65-74 years; and almost a third were aged under 18 years. About 23% of Hispanics/Latinos were confirmed
Описание: Focusing on shopkeepers in Latino/a neighborhoods in Los Angeles, Dolores Trevizo and Mary Lopez reveal how neighborhood poverty affects the business performance of Mexican immigrant entrepreneurs. Their survey of shopkeepers in twenty immigrant neighborhoods demonstrates that even slightly less impoverished, multiethnic communities offer better business opportunities than do the highly impoverished, racially segregated Mexican neighborhoods of Los Angeles. Their findings reveal previously overlooked aspects of microclass, as well as “legal capital” advantages. The authors argue that even poor Mexican immigrants whose class backgrounds in Mexico imparted an entrepreneurial disposition can achieve a modicum of business success in the right (U.S.) neighborhood context, and the more quickly they build legal capital, the better their outcomes. While the authors show that the local place characteristics of neighborhoods both reflect and reproduce class and racial inequalities, they also demonstrate that the diversity of experience among Mexican immigrants living within the spatial boundaries of these communities can contribute to economic mobility.

Описание: This book discusses racial segregation in American cities. Using St. Louis as a point of departure, it examines the causes and consequences of residential segregation, and proposes potential mitigation strategies. While an introduction, timeline and historical overview frame the subject, nine topic-specific conversations – between invited academics, policy makers and urban professionals – provide the main structure. Each of these conversations is contextualized by a photograph, an editors’ note and an essay written by a respected current or former St. Louisan. The essayists respond to the conversations by speaking to the impacts of segregation and by suggesting innovative policy and design tactics from their professional or academic perspective. The purpose of the book, therefore, is not to provide original research on residential segregation, but rather to offer a unique collection of insightful, transdisciplinary reflections on the experience of segregation in America and how it might be addressed.

Описание: This book interrogates the persistence of Roma and migrant segregation in camps in order to understand how the creation of temporary enclosures can lead to enduring marginalisation. Persistent temporariness has been widely acknowledged as a common aspect of these camps, yet it remains largely under-theorised. Gaja Maestri unpacks the notion of camp persistence to delineate its different regimes and to investigate contributing factors. In order to do so, she develops a comparison between Italy and France and offers a new theorisation of the camp as a site of contentious politics, where the interaction between governmental and non-governmental actors produces different temporal arrangements and forms of segregation.Temporary Camps, Enduring Segregation will be of interest to scholars of political sociology, European comparative politics, and urban geography, specifically to those in the field of camp studies, racial segregation, Romani studies, and urban social movements.
