Summary Annotation Contributors identify and examines various aspects of systemic violence, particularly as it is embedded in administrative and pedagogical practices such as racism, harassment, and child abuse, as well as less obvious forms such as practices intended to improve student performance. They investigate school administration policies, labeling, classroom interaction, children's games, and teacher reactions to child abuse, in kindergarten through graduate classrooms.
