Abstract

ACLE TOMASINI, Guadalupe. Ecology of education in Temoaya. Nueva antropol [online]. 2003, vol.19, n.62, pp.29-53. ISSN 0185-0636.

Using as an example a monolingual (Spanish) primary school in the indigenous locality of San Pedro Abajo, Temoaya, Mexico State, this article focuses on the school as a human habitat, integrated vertically into different levels of cultural, economic, social and political organization. Following the model of cultural ecology applied to education, the article analyses the interrelation between school and those contexts, trying to discern the impact in the community of the school as an institution and the education which the children receive in it.
