Conseguir una escuela inclusiva requiere necesariamente pensar con rigor cómo se proporciona el apoyo a sus estudiantes. Un apoyo que debe entenderse como una parte intrínseca del funcionamiento de la escuela y que va en beneficio de todos y todas las estudiantes. Para ello es imprescindible que todos los agentes implicados con la escuela tengan plena consciencia del papel del apoyo educativo, de su finalidad y de las maneras de proporcionarlo. Por este motivo, el texto combina el rigor teórico en el análisis de las formas de apoyo con su plasmación en la práctica cotidiana de las escuelas, usando numerosos ejemplos reales.
En un contexto social que no sea excluyente con las personas que alguien designó como «diferentes» o como «radicalmente diferentes», se deben conjugar elementos que de forma disruptiva den lugar a un nosotros frente a un ellos-y-nosotros. Una sociedad inclusiva no le tiene miedo a la diversidad, y esa es la apuesta de este libro. Pero hablar de sociedades inclusivas, a menudo, puede ser interpretado como un paso hacia una sociedad hiperindividualista. En este contexto, podemos decir que las sociedades inclusivas tienen que ver también con la construcción social de «lo normativo» y con la repercusión que esto tiene sobre las personas.

This book proposes an innovative conceptual framework to explore cultural organizations at a multilateral level and cultural mediators as key figures in cultural and institutionalization processes. Specifically, it analyzes the role of Ibero-American mediators in the institutionalization of Hispanic and Lusophone cultures in the first half of the 20th century by means of two institutional networks: PEN (the non-governmental writer’s association) and the International Institute of Intellectual Cooperation (predecessor to UNESCO). Attempting to combine cultural and global history, sociology, and literary studies, the book uses an analytical focus on intercultural networks and cultural transf...
Thoroughly updated to reflect the challenges of diversity in today’s schools, this new edition of Achievement and Inclusion in Schools shows how high levels of inclusion can be entirely compatible with high levels of achievement and that combining the two is not only possible but also essential if all students are to have the opportunity to participate fully in education. Each chapter has been fully revised to reflect an understanding of inclusion as being concerned with the learning and participation of everyone in a changing education policy context. Based on new case study research, this edition sets out to answer the following questions: Are there strategies which can raise the achieve...

Liberal theories have long insisted that cultural diversity in democratic societies can be accommodated through classical liberal tools, in particular through individual rights, and they have often rejected the claims of cultural minorities for group rights as illiberal. Group Rights as Human Rights argues that such a rejection is misguided. Based on a thorough analysis of the concept of group rights, it proposes to overcome the dominant dichotomy between "individual" human rights and "collective" group rights by recognizing that group rights also serve individual interests. It also challenges the claim that group rights, so understood, conflict with the liberal principle of neutrality; on t...
