          Abstract

          Resumen Durante los últimos 30 años se observa en Argentina un importante crecimiento de la matrícula en escuelas privadas; sin embargo, muchas familias de clase media que poseen recursos para pagar escuela privada se resisten a la tendencia mayoritaria y permanecen en escuelas públicas. El estudio es de tipo descriptivo-correlacional y se realizó a partir de la información recabada mediante 30 entrevistas semi-estructuradas abiertas a 21 madres y 9 padres de clase media/alta con hijos en escuelas secundarias públicas de Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Este trabajo se propone describir las motivaciones, expectativas y percepciones por parte de familias de clase media/alta con hijos en edad escolar que, contrariamente a la práctica mayoritaria para ese sector social, eligen escuelas públicas para sus hijos. Intenta, además, comprender la elección de escuela pública y el relato que se construye como parte de un proceso de construcción de identidades.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract In the last thirty years, Argentina has seen a surge in enrollments at private schools; however, many middle-class families with the resources to pay for private education are resisting the majority trend and are remaining at state-run schools. This is a descriptive-correlational study based on information gathered from 30 semi-structured, open interviews with 21 mothers and 9 fathers from middle- and upper-class families with children of school age who, unlike the majority of those of the same social status, are choosing state schools for their children. The study also attempts to understand the choice of state school and the account that is constructed as part of an identity-building process.
