Resumen
AVENA KOENIGSBERGER, Alexandra. Indigenous students in the context of structural inequalities. CPU-e. Rev. Investig. Educ [online]. 2017, n.24, pp.176-198. ISSN 1870-5308.
In this article I intend to analyze the relation between the Mexican educational system and structural inequalities. For that, I will analyze the problems that indigenous students face when trying to make effective their right to education. I offer a series of reasons that explain the educational inequalities between indigenous and non-indigenous students. By developing the concept of structural inequality, I argue that indigenous peoples in Mexico are victims of these type of inequalities. And finally, by drawing on some critical debates against liberal egalitarianism I suggest that the Mexican educational system ought to adopt principles of the politics of difference and, as a consequence, of multiculturalism.
