The Conceptualization of Violence-Prone School Subcontexts: Is the Sum of the Parts Greater than the Whole?
Astor, Ron Avi; Meyer, Heather Ann
Urban Education, v36 n3 p374-99 May 2001
Raises concerns about how context is conceptualized and researched in many current school violence inquiries, explaining that teachers' and students' understandings of violence in certain school subcontexts (hallways, bathrooms, and cafeterias) remains an under-researched area. Raises other concerns about lack of a philosophical discussion surrounding the meaning of school violence to school professionals, students, and society. (SM)
