Schooling as Uncertainty

In today's uncertain world, few beliefs remain as firmly entrenched as the optimistic view that more schooling will inevitably lead to a better life. Though this may be true in the aggregate, how do we explain the circumstances when schooling fails to produce certainty or even does us harm? Rich or poor, black or white, we fervently await higher wages, better health, and greater happiness from our advanced degrees.

Throughout, Vavrus reflects on her quest for certainty, beginning as a graduate student and young mother and continuing to the present as a tenured professor.Using reflexive, longitudinal ethnographic research, the book examines how African youth, particularly Schooling as Uncertainty addresses this question by combining ethnography and memoir as it guides readers on a 30-year journey through fieldwork and familyhood in Tanzania and academic life in the USA.
