Organized around several successive policies that emerged in this time: school equalization, school choice, neighborhood schools, school construction, school closure, busing for racial integration, and school discipline, Dougherty shows how these policies contained and reinforced assumptions about place and created new racial truths about people and schooling. ﻿Dierdre Mayer Dougherty is an Associate Professor&nbsp;of Educational Studies&nbsp;at Knox College. ﻿﻿Max Jacobs is a PhD student in&nbsp;Education at Rutgers Universty.
