Abstract
In this article Matthew B. Kautz theorizes schools as unique carceral institutions with the capacities to criminalize, surveil, discipline, and punish and demonstrates how they have mobilized these unique abilities to establish social control. By tracing the development of school disciplinary policy and practice following Brown v. Board of Education, the essay illuminates how policy makers produced politically salable narratives of criminality to rationalize the expansion of jails and prisons during a period of major economic restructuring. Engaging with this history, Kautz provides a different lens for considering contemporary education policy.
在这篇文章中,马修-B.-考茨(Matthew B. Kautz)从理论上将学校视为具有定罪、监控、惩戒和惩罚能力的独特监禁机构,并展示了学校是如何调动这些独特能力来建立社会控制的。通过追溯布朗诉教育委员会案之后学校惩戒政策和实践的发展,文章揭示了政策制定者是如何制造出政治上可销售的犯罪叙事,从而在重大经济结构调整时期使监狱和看守所的扩张合理化。结合这段历史,考茨为思考当代教育政策提供了一个不同的视角。
