Summary, etc This book examines the systemic causes of and potential solutions to entrenched educational inequalities within marginalized urban areas in affluent nations. Questioning standard government assumptions, Raffo explores how broader external inequities—spanning localized socio-economic status, community structures, geography, gender, and ethnicity—converge to restrict the learning capabilities and credentials of young people. Grounded in Amartya Sen's concepts of 'agency freedom' and social justice theories, the text introduces an innovative educational equity framework and practical toolkit complete with case studies to offer educators and policymakers a holistic, area-based roadmap for systemic reform.
