ABSTRACT

In this article we develop a typology of anti-racist action in education. Using teachers’ practices and experiences, we highlight six approaches on how teachers counter racism in their schools. Each approach entails a different set of actions and aims to address different manifestations of racism. They range from actions that seek to challenge structural racism (the emancipatory, norm-critical and intercultural perspectives), to approaches that engage individualized forms of racism (the relational, democratic and knowledge-focused perspectives). Our analysis makes the complexity of both racism and anti-racism visible. It provides an opportunity to navigate the various types of anti-racist actions, and make conscious decisions regarding what type should be used in relation to different manifestations of racism. The analysis is based on interviews with 27 high-school teachers working in the Swedish educational system.

摘要

在本文中，我们开发了一种教育中反种族主义行动的类型学。利用教师的实践和经验，我们重点介绍了教师如何应对学校中的种族主义的六种方法。每种方法都需要一系列不同的行动，旨在解决种族主义的不同表现。它们的范围从寻求挑战结构性种族主义的行动（解放的、规范批判的和跨文化的观点）到涉及个性化形式的种族主义的方法（关系、民主和以知识为中心的观点）。我们的分析使种族主义和反种族主义的复杂性可见一斑。它提供了一个机会来引导各种类型的反种族主义行动，并有意识地决定应该使用哪种类型来应对不同的种族主义表现。
