This qualitative case study uses critical policy analysis to explore the political and social contexts surrounding the early stages of developing a voluntary integration plan in Wake County Public School System, North Carolina. Through analysis of interviews with school board and community members as well as a range of documents, findings indicate that population growth and residential development, the proliferation of unregulated school choice, varied perspectives of community stakeholders, inequitable distribution of power and resources,  \nand school board politics largely shape the process of developing a voluntary integration plan. Recommendations are provided for school district policies, cross-sector collaboration, and statelevel policies that could strengthen the potential success of voluntary integration plans.

Este estudio de caso cualitativo utiliza un análisis crítico de políticas para explorar los contextos políticos y sociales que rodean las primeras etapas del desarrollo de un plan de integración voluntaria en el Sistema de Escuelas Públicas del Wake County, North Carolina. A través del análisis de entrevistas con la junta escolar y miembros de la comunidad, así como una variedad de documentos, los hallazgos indican que el crecimiento de la población y el desarrollo residencial, la proliferación de opciones escolares no reguladas, las perspectivas variadas de las partes interesadas de la comunidad, ladistribución desigual del poder y los recursos y la junta escolar la política moldea en gran medida el proceso de desarrollo de un plan de integración voluntario. Se proporcionanrecomendaciones para las políticas del distrito escolar, la colaboración intersectorial y las políticas a nivel estatal que podrían fortalecer el éxito potencial de los planes de integración voluntaria.  \nPalabras-clave: política educativa; integración escolar; política de la educación; consejo escolar; análisis crítico de políticas  \nA nova segregação não acontecerá sob nossa vigilância: O contexto político e social em torno da integração voluntária no Sistema de Escolas Públicas do Wake County Resumo: Como a resgregação ocorre em todo o país, alguns distritos escolares estãobuscando a integração voluntária.
