DISSERTATION

“Race, Parenting, and Special Education Law”

This dissertation is comprised of three article-length papers. The first paper theorizes how racial differences in parental economic, social and cultural capital can account for some of the racial disparities in restrictive educational placements for children in special education. The second paper uses the Foucaultian concept of discipline and applies it to an analysis of the Model Special Education Parental Rights document promogulated by the Department of Education. I show how the document steers some parents away from demanding rights towards accepting responsibility for educating children with disabilities. The third paper uses data collected through semi-structured interviews with middle-class black mothers and white middle class mothers of children with disabilities. I show the similarities and differences in how these two groups of
