Social Reproduction and Educational Inequality in The Three Southern Provinces

Abstract

This academic article entitled "Social Reproduction and Educational Inequality in The Three Southern Provinces" aims to investigate social reproduction that impacts educational inequality in the three Southern border provinces through Pierre Bourdieu's concepts and related issues, such as the Social Capital and Cultural Capital. The results found that Bourdieu's concept of social reproduction in the context of the three Southern border provinces can be used to explain educational inequality. This is because nowadays, in the three Southern border provinces, many factors cause people to have different access to education, especially in Thai society, where social reproduction is quite explicit. Educational inequality therefore exists everywhere. Using this concept in problem analysis will be beneficial and serve as a guideline for solving the future educational inequality problem in the three Southern border provinces.
