Abstract
This article explores the representations and meanings regarding social inequality socially constructed in schools since the implementation of the Federal Law of Education in the 90's. This work analyses the implementation of institutional articulation policy in one school in the suburbs of Buenos Aires with the intention of describing how decentralization and autonomy policies contribute to reinforcing social inequalities in schools' everyday life. By reference to concrete ethnographic situations, we describe the process by which schools implemented the institutional articulation between former primary and secondary schools in order to understand not only what people say about social inequality in a particular moment in history, but also what people "do". As a result, this paper intends to describe the differentiation process among and within schools that the implementation of neoliberal policies leds to. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
