educación multicultural, culturaResumen
Desde nuestro punto de vista, la discusión sobre educación multicultural surge en el momento en que ciertos aspectos de la variable cultura, en tanto variable representativa de la diversidad, se introducen en el aula y en la escuela. Cuando existe una presencia de grupos étnicos claramente diferenciados por razones del color de piel, lengua materna, valores y comportamientos religiosos, y, junto a todo ello y otros elementos más, diferencias socioeconómicas, se reconoce la necesidad de una educación «especial» para atender tales diferencias. Aparece una nueva forma de conceptualizar la discriminación que se practica a través de la escuela: la discriminación por la diferencia cultural. La vieja (?) escuela discriminatoria y reproductora de las diferencias de sexo y clase también discrimina ahora (siempre lo hizo) a quienes pertenecen a grupos culturales diferentes al dominante y hegemónico en ella, y ambas discriminaciones, lógicamente, caminan juntas.

(1) Ésta es una versión ampliada parcialmente del trabajo con similar título publicado en la Revista de Educación 302, 83-110, 1993. Es el resultado parcial de un trabajo de investigación sobre la escolarización de hijos de inmigrantes en escuelas españolas. Versiones anteriores fueron discutidas en el International Symposium sobre «Europe in Education» (Bad Urach, Alemania, 1992), en la conferencia pronunciada en la School of Education de la Universidad de California, Davis (I-XII-92) y en el ERASMUS Intensive Course Intercultural Relations and Education: Theories, Policies and Practices, Lisboa, Marzo 19-26, 1994.
Agradecemos a Concha Delgado Gaitán y a María Dolores Villuendas los diversos comentarios a las anteriores versiones.

Agradecemos a la Dirección General de Investigación y Ciencia de la Junta de Andalucía y al Vicerrectorado de Investigación y Relaciones Internacionales de la Universidad de Granada las subvenciones concedidas para el desarrollo de estas estancias.
(3) Aunque reconocemos que existen ya varias tipologías sobre educación multicultural a las que se puede acudir, insistimos en nuestra propuesta de organizar el campo desde la antropología; esto es, si acaso, lo que de relativamente novedoso puede aportarse en esta primera parte.
