EDUCACIÓN INTERCULTURAL. ¿TRABAJAR CON LOS DIFERENTES O LAS DIFERENCIAS?

In the context of the Educative Politic formulated in the international scope by the Multilateral Organisms (Jomtiem, 1990; Salamanca, 1994; Dakar, 2000), it's been emphasized the moral and political obligation of attend also the social groups that express and manifest social, cultural, economic, politic, and physical different characteristics, that a democratic society requires. The sociocultural and educative necessities of the groups raised in this forums, were postulated from the dialog between the inclusion and the interculturality, for guarantee the access to all the educative services available to society, "assuring" the resources for socialize, grow without losing their identity and been incorporated to socioeconomic processes. The persistent social, cultural, economic, and educative gaps, showed the number of people that lives in poverty and, the unequal distribution of the wealth; those gaps has been transformed in serious deficiencies, moreover of delay the democratization of the societies processes. However more than been a relative marginal issue to the integration of the students in the regular educative system, the debate focuses in how to transform the educative systems and the knowledge environments for giving an answer to the differences of the students and not to the attention of the different.
