Meer over het boek
The book delves into class integration in Colombian higher education, focusing on a forgivable loan program that aids high-achieving students from disadvantaged backgrounds. It introduces concepts like 'gate opening' and 'diversified networks' as tools to combat entrenched inequality. Through a longitudinal ethnographic study, it highlights the social mobility journey of students at an elite institution, exploring their cross-class friendships, educational achievements, and the complexities of navigating cultural and social barriers in the job market.
