Omschrijving

In Framing Dropouts, Michelle Fine challenges the dominant narratives surrounding school dropouts by turning our attention to the voices, bodies, and lived experiences of young people and educators inside an urban comprehensive high school. Through a critical ethnographic lens, Fine exposes the historic irony at the heart of public education: the promise of equal opportunity alongside the persistent production of unequal outcomes.

Blending vivid narrative with rigorous social theory, the book traces how race, class, gender, and power braid together to shape whose voices are nurtured, whose bodies are discharged, and whose critiques are silenced. Students labeled "at risk," low-income mothers struggling at the margins, and educators working within constrained institutions speak back to policies and practices that too often render their pain invisible. Rather than treating dropping out as an individual failure, Fine reframes it as a deeply social and political process--one rooted in the erosion of schools as democratic public spheres.

Moving from ethnographic detail to critical theory and activist politics, Framing Dropouts calls on readers to confront the harms produced by public institutions and to imagine how schools might once again serve as spaces of dialogue, critique, and collective possibility.

Provocative, compassionate, and transformative, this landmark study reshapes the field of dropout research and urban education. It is essential reading for educators, scholars, policymakers, and anyone committed to understanding--and changing--the conditions that place young people at risk.
