Ethnography of the school culture of gender, a study in internal centres in Santiago de Cuba, is the result of an investigation in which a metatheoretical and transdisciplinary exercise is carried out between Pedagogical and Educational Sciences to form a proposal that allows a deep understanding of the pedagogical thought that focuses on beliefs, symbols, customs and representations of teachers and students in the school context. In this framework of interaction, the cultural forms, meanings and senses with which the ideal of being human associated with gender representations is transmitted and acquired are connoted. The description not only focuses on the activities in which a clear difference in relation to gender is perceived, but also extends to those in which these differences are not noticeable but underlying. This book promotes a pedagogical reflection useful to generate changes in the cultural matrix from which teachers and managers make pedagogical decisions based on gender representations in the development of the training process in boarding schools in a specific cultural context.
