The Education Trap by Cristina Viviana Groeger challenges the notion that educational institutions in Boston have served as social equalizers. Focusing on the period from the mid-1800s to the 1940s, Groeger argues that schools in Boston have perpetuated economic and social inequality rather than dismantling it. Using IPUMS data, she demonstrates that increased educational access did not lead to greater social or economic mobility for marginalized groups. Instead, schools often acted as tools for concentrating wealth and maintaining the city's corporate economy. The book calls for radical economic policies and labor movements to address income inequality, suggesting that educational institutions alone cannot achieve social and economic mobility.
