Aboriginal Children

This article examines two psychological interventions with Australian Aboriginal children in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The first involved evaluating the cognitive maturation of Aboriginal adolescents using a series of Piagetian interviews. The second, a more extensive educational intervention, used a variety of quantitative tests to measure and intervene in the intellectual performance of Aboriginal preschoolers. In both of these interventions the viability of the psychological instruments in the cross-cultural encounter created ongoing ambiguity as to the value of the research outcomes. Ultimately, the resolution of this ambiguity in favour of notions of Aboriginal ‘cultural deprivation’ reflected the broader political context of debates over Aboriginal self-governance during this period.

Bias And Discrimination

This paper suggests that sport sociology may be ready to move from a generally atheoretical approach to “race and sport“ to a critical analysis of racial relations and sport. Four theoretical groups are identified from the writing of racial relations scholars: bias and discrimination theories, assimilation and cultural deprivation theories, materialist and class-based theories, and culturalist or colonial theories. In the past, studies of race and sport have fit within the former two theories. A cultural studies approach that blends the latter theories is advocated in order to move toward the goal of critical theory and develop a comprehensive model for analyzing the complex of relations of dominance and subordination simultaneously structured along racial, gender, and class lines.

Politica Educativa

The article contextualises over-age enrolment within the social divisions affecting the education system in Brazil. The following section analyses to what extent the components of multidimensional poverty impinge on the probability for a student to attend a course corresponding to a lower age. This analysis is helpful to discuss two mechanisms that provoke educational inequalities according to the international specialists. These are the accumulation of accumulation of material, social and cultural deprivation along people’s life, and opportunity hoarding through social closure. Both of them contribute significantly to over-age enrolment in Brazil.
