In this comparative ethnographic case study, Ethan Chang examines the politics of digital education reform. Drawing on new institutional theory and boundary work, he investigates how two digital technology nonprofit organizations in California drew boundaries to define themselves and ensure their survival in a competitive organizational field. He found that a Silicon Valley organization defined itself through prevailing state and corporate narratives of digital education reform and constructed technologies to accelerate achievement for low-income students. By contrast, an Oakland organization defined itself through expressed commitments to building power among historically excluded communities and communities of color and approached digital technologies to foster shared struggles for racial justice. Based on these findings, Chang develops the concept of a politics of redaction to foreground how actors in positions of power seek to depoliticize justice-oriented reform efforts and maintain inequitable social boundaries.
