Ni？os inmigrantes en Argentina: nacionalismo escolar, derechos educativos y experiencias de alteridad

in this study, we address the meanings of nationalism in argentine schools, and the construction of representations of migrant children from bolivia. along with general references to the educational system, we consider daily school situations that are reconstructed from an ethnographic study of schools in the city of buenos aires. we reflect on the images of these children's previous school trajectories, their learning possibilities, and educational opportunities parallel to school. we also address the way migrant children experience their national identifications. we notice especially the processes of invisibility and silence in their references, and the rooted xenophobic forms of nationalism that make their educational rights a topic of discussion.
