How can we help African American and Latino students perform better in the classroom and on exams? In Keepin' It Real: School Success Beyond Black and White, Prudence Carter argues that what is needed is a broader recognition of the unique cultural styles and practices that non-white students bring to the classroom. Based on extensive interviews and surveys of students in New York, she demonstrates that the most successful negotiators of our school systems are the multicultural navigators, culturally savvy teens who draw from multiple traditions, whether it be knowledge of hip hop or of classical music, to achieve their high ambitions.

Even as they see their wages go down and their buying power decrease, many parents are still putting their kids' material desires first. These parents struggle with how to handle children's consumer wants, which continue unabated despite the economic downturn. And, indeed, parents and other adults continue to spend billions of dollars on children every year. Why do children seem to desire so much, so often, so soon, and why do parents capitulate so readily? To determine what forces lie behind the onslaught of Nintendo Wiis and Bratz dolls, Allison J. Pugh spent three years observing and interviewing children and their families. In "Longing and Belonging: Parents, Children, and Consumer Culture", Pugh teases out the complex factors that contribute to how we buy, from lunchroom conversations about Game Boys to the stark inequalities facing American children. Pugh finds that children's desires stem less from striving for status or falling victim to advertising than from their yearning to join the conversation at school or in the neighborhood. Most parents respond to children's need to belong by buying the particular goods and experiences that act as passports in children's social worlds, because they sympathize with their children's fear of being different from their peers. Even under financial constraints, families prioritize children 'feeling normal'. Pugh masterfully illuminates the surprising similarities in the fears and hopes of parents and children from vastly different social contexts, showing that while corporate marketing and materialism play a part in the commodification of childhood, at the heart of the matter is the desire to belong.

做父母,為何變得這麼難??
以親職焦慮為鏡,折射出當代臺灣的面貌
人們經常以為教養是個別父母的煩惱。然而,面對不確定的全球化未來、擴大的階級不平等,種種看不見的結構力量與社會界線,正讓當代父母集體感到焦慮與不安。
面對貌似不安全與不確定的未來,當代臺灣父母採取不同的教育與親職策略,試圖保障下一代的安康。弔詭的是,這些保安策略卻經常讓我們感到更不安全。
從拚經濟到拚教養
在臺灣「拚經濟」的時代中成長的父母,如今「拚教養」成為人生重點。 他們渴望擺脫體罰與聯考的陰影,成為與上一代大不相同的父母,同時也希望下一代在全球化的時代裡,更有能力與機會去探索世界。儘管這一代父母擁有比過去更豐富的教養資源,然而,教養這件事卻讓他們益發焦慮,不時懷疑自己是否做太少、做太多、做不好、做不對?
透過教養焦慮,看見當代臺灣
本書以親職焦慮為鏡,映現出臺灣在全球化脈絡中所面對的風險與挑戰,包括相對停滯的本地經濟與薪資、與全球資本主義更緊密的連結與競爭、產業變化的不確定性,而日趨擴大的階級落差正透過教養形塑許多孩子的不平等童年。
臺大社會系特聘教授藍佩嘉,延續她在《跨國灰姑娘》中對於社會不平等的觀察與追索,從城市到鄉村,深入田野訪談近六十個家庭,並到學校教學現場實際觀察,扣緊中產階級與勞工階級的差異,分析臺灣目前幾種主要的教養模式,追問為什麼父母會做出某種選擇,以及這些選擇對家庭與孩子的影響,是理解臺灣當代教養現況重要的田野報告。

Privilege 豆瓣

As one of the most prestigious high schools in the nation, St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire, has long been the exclusive domain of America's wealthiest sons. But times have changed. Today, a new elite of boys and girls is being molded at St. Paul's, one that reflects the hope of openness but also the persistence of inequality. In "Privilege", Shamus Khan returns to his alma mater to provide an inside look at an institution that has been the private realm of the elite for the past 150 years. He shows that St. Paul's students continue to learn what they always have - how to embody privilege. Yet, while students once leveraged the trappings of upper-class entitlement, family connections, and high culture, current St. Paul's students learn to succeed in a more diverse environment. To be the future leaders of a more democratic world, they must be at ease with everything from highbrow art to everyday life - from Beowulf to Jaws - and view hierarchies as ladders to scale. Through deft portrayals of the relationships among students, faculty, and staff, Khan shows how members of the new elite face the opening of society while still preserving the advantages that allow them to rule.
