An intersectional approach to educational research within socio-culturally complex schools and communities.

Abstract

The paper will begin by focusing on some elements of current anthropological analysis of socio-cultural complexity. It will then proceed to briefly recall various aspects that characterize an intersectional approach addressing issues related to educational achievements of migrant background children. Within this theoretical background, the paper will finally present some perspectives of educational research and intervention within socio-culturally complex schools and communities.
