The aim of this assignment is to explore some of the main debates regarding both socio-economic, cultural issues and its relation to education. In the first section, it will mainly draw ideas from Nancy Fraser, Iris young and Amartya Sen to explain not only how inequalities have taken place in society, but also how it appears to be an alternative paradigm of social justice. The assignment shows an overall understanding of how redistribution and recognition can have pressures and tensions but also the linking points between them through Fraser´s remedies for justice. It also will show how socio-cultural differences have become relevant in society and why those appear to be claims for justice. This analysis will provide a discussion of education and policy tensions and pressures within the social justice approach and social democracies in the Latin American context.
The assignment will question the role of education in addressing inequalities based on a paradigm of recognition and redistribution as well as how the system has helped to homogenise and then marginalise groups of minorities. This social justice paradigm will be argued as a way to offer an alternative rationale about quality in education. This analysis will support the idea of a quality education redefinition to develop individuals and society´s capabilities through what they have reason to value (Tikly and Barrett, 2011). Hence, quality should have a place in schools´ communities to reflect upon the curricula as “praxis”, and, more precisely, as a “bridge between society and school” to address inequality (Sacristan, 2000 p.14).
