It ""blames the victim"" for school failure instead of examining how schools are structured to prevent poor students and students of color from learning. Dismantling Contemporary Deficit Thinking provides comprehensive critiques and anti-deficit thinking alternatives to this oppressive theory by framing the linkages between prevailing theoretical perspectives and contemporary practices within the complex historical development of deficit thinking.Dismantling Contemporary Deficit Thinking exCritical educator.EducationPhilosophySchool management and organizationRacism in educationEducationPhilosophy.School management and organization.Racism in education.370.1Valencia Richard R.885583MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785147403321Dismantling contemporary deficit thinking3694536UNINA
