Through deep ethnographic studies, the authors build a clear account of children’s experiences at a variety of ages, different genders, and from differing ethnic and social backgrounds. Ultimately they show that even though Danish welfare institutions are marked by a strong egalitarian ideal, they nonetheless tend to reproduce dominant norms of social class and distinctions of ethnicity and religion.\u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Pluto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47020183814384,"sku":"9780745336046","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780745336046_p0.jpg?v=1769901725","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780745336046","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
