John Ogbu (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

John Uzo Ogbu (May 9, 1939 – August 20, 2003) was a Nigerian-American anthropologist and professor known for his theories on observed phenomena involving race and intelligence, especially how race and ethnic differences played out in educational and economic achievement. He suggested that being a "caste-like minority" affects motivation and achievement, depressing IQ scores. He also concluded that some students did poorly because high achievement was considered "acting white" among their peers. Ogbu was also involved in the 1996 controversy surrounding the use of African American Vernacular English in public schools in Oakland, California. The 2000 book Eminent Educators: Studies in Intellectual Influence focused on him as one of "four intellectual giants of the 20th century."

dbo:abstract John Uzo Ogbu (* 9. Mai 1939 in Ebonyi; † 20. August 2003) war ein nigerianisch-amerikanischer Anthropologe und Intelligenzforscher. Sein spezielles Interesse galt dem Thema Rasse und Intelligenz. Seine Theorien wurden kontrovers diskutiert. Schwarze Bürgerrechtler warfen ihm Rassismus vor, während Konservative ihm vorwarfen, alle Schuld für Probleme der Afroamerikaner in den USA bei den Weißen zu sehen. Laut John Ogbu senkt die Zugehörigkeit zu einer „kastenähnlichen“ Minorität den IQ und die Schulleistungen. Er vertrat die These, dass gute Leistungen zu erbringen unter Afroamerikanern als „acting white“ gelten würde.

Le sue teorie furono oggetto di discussioni e controversie. Degli attivisti neri lo accusarono di razzismo, mentre i conservatori lo accusarono di imputare ai bianchi tutte le colpe dei problemi degli afroamericani negli USA. John Ogbu riteneva che appartenere a una minoranza cosiddetta involantaria riducesse il QI e le prestazioni scolastiche. Egli sostenne la tesi che raggiungere buone prestazioni veniva considerato, all'interno della comunità afroamericana, un'emulazione degli studenti bianchi (in inglese, acting white). (it) John Uzo Ogbu (9 mei, 1939 - 20 augustus, 2003) was een Nigeriaans-Amerikaans antropoloog, socioloog en professor. Ogbu staat voornamelijk bekend omwille van zijn theorieën ter verklaring van geobserveerde fenomenen met betrekking tot ras en intelligentie, en dan specifiek hoe ras en etnische verschillen zich vertalen in schoolprestaties en de economische situatie van minderheidsgroeperingen. Ogbu suggereerde dat het behoren tot een "" (vrij vertaald: onvrijwillig gemigreerde, gesegregeerde minderheid) een invloed heeft op zowel de motivatie die men heeft om iets te bereiken, als op de uiteindelijke prestaties. Ogbu stelde ook dat sommige leerlingen slecht scoren op school omdat goed presteren op school binnen de peer group als een vorm van acting white wordt gezien, waarbij men de eigen cultuur verraadt ten voordele van de dominante, "blanke" waarden. Ogbu stierf in 2003 aan de gevolgen van een post-operatieve hartaanval en werd begraven in Nigeria. (nl)
