Description
This book critiques the currently popular at-risk construct, drawing from historical, contextual, critical, and personal perspectives. It provides an alternative context for viewing children and their families as at-promise. A basic premise of the book is that the generalized use of the at-risk label is highly problematic and often implicitly racist and classist--a 1990s version of the cultural deficit model that locates problems in individuals, families, and communities, rather than in institutional structures that create and maintain inequality. This book provides a needed interrogation and alternative context for viewing children and families caught in the extreme conditions facing many families in the United States.
