Abstract The aim of this article is to discuss the dynamics of gang involvement by considering the social reproduction perspective and resistance theory literature and by examining general perceptions of learners and adults who regularly experience gang violence. In a study utilising quantitative and qualitative design, a questionnaire was administered to 360 Grade 6 learners in low socio-economic areas in Western Cape, South Africa. Interviews with educators and two experts in the field of gang involvement were conducted. In contrast with the current trend in literature, the participants made no distinction between gangs as marginalised individuals and gangs as deviant subcultures. This may be ascribed to the current high prevalence of violence which is associated with gangs in Western Cape. It was found that, while learners express their fear of gangs, some identify with and idealise gang life.

学习者和教育者对西开普省帮派参与的看法

摘要本文的目的是通过考虑社会再生产视角和抵抗理论文献,并研究经常遭受帮派暴力的学习者和成年人的一般看法,来讨论帮派参与的动态。在一项利用定量和定性设计的研究中,对南非西开普省低社会经济地区的360名6年级学习者进行了问卷调查。与帮派参与领域的教育者和两名专家进行了访谈。与当前的文学趋势相反,参与者没有区分作为边缘化个体的帮派和作为异常亚文化的帮派。这可能归因于当前与西开普省的帮派有关的暴力盛行。发现,
