Special Issue:
Education and the Production of Inequalities:
Perspectives from the Global South and North
 
Dear ~~first_name~~,
 
We are very happy to share the news of the recently published Journal of Sociology Special Issue on 'Education and the Production of Inequalities: Perspectives from the Global South and North' for Volume: 58, Number: 3 (September 2022), guest edited by Denisse Sepúlveda, Manuela Mendoza Horvitz, Sara Joiko, and Francisca Ortiz Ruiz. The editorial abstract is below:
 
Education is an essential aspect of any society in the world. As such, it has been a topic studied by many sociologists since the origins of the discipline. Today it is one of the most common subjects in sociology, in part because it has been recognised as a crucial environment for the (re)production of inequalities. This article explores the role of education in the (re)production of social inequalities and its potential to challenge such inequalities. In addition, the article presents some of the distinctions between research in the Global South and North, both in geographical and metaphorical terms. Since this article is the introduction to the special issue Education and the Production of Inequalities: Dialogues from the Global South and North, a synopsis of the published articles is presented at the end.
