Questioning Gender Politics
Questioning Gender Politics: Contextualising Educational Disparities in Uncertain Times showcases contemporary thinking on pressing aspects of gender equalities, such as patriarchal culture, sexual harassment, trans rights, queer pedagogies, and sex education in various educational settings and international contexts. This book illustrates how education is an important physical, material and ideological site for understanding and challenging stubborn gender inequalities. Questioning Gender Politics positions itself within existing theorisations and research outlining how gender issues and sexist power cultures have in many cases changed from plain to more insidious inequalities. The notion o...
Género y poder
En un proyecto de descolonización del género plural y de largo alcance dentro de los feminismos, este libro es una conversación entre América del Sur (Abya Yala) y el sur de Europa (territorio español) que busca contribuir, en un contexto revuelto, al continuo camino de reconstrucción de la resistencia y política feministas frente a una matriz colonial-moderna gobernada para ser "sana, competente y feliz". Aquí, esta matriz se vincula con la regulación y fabricación de alterizaciones y minorizaciones naturalizadas sometidas a violencias estructurales a partir de un ideal blanco de género, nación y raza. Género y poder: exploraciones situadas en el sistema colonial-moderno es un ejercicio parcial y plural, en términos de lugares de enunciación, que abre el diálogo y presenta fragmentos de insurrección de nuevas prácticas feministas de vulnerabilidad y resistencia, de transformación subjetiva y social y de agenciamientos y libertad.
Care Ethics and Art
What would it mean to substitute care for economics as the central concern of politics? This anthology invites analysis, reflections and speculations on how contemporary artists and creative practitioners engage with, interpret, and enact care in practices which might forge an alternative ethics in the age of neoliberalism. Interdisciplinary and innovative, it brings together contributions from artists, researchers and practitioners who creatively consider how care can be practised in a range of contexts, including environmental ethics, progressive pedagogies, cultures of work, alternative economic models, death literacy advocacy, parenting and mothering, deep listening, mental health, disability and craftivism. Care Ethics and Art contributes new modes of understanding these fields, together with practical solutions and models of practice, while also offering new ways to think about recent contemporary art and its social function. The book will benefit scholars and postgraduate research students in the fields of art, art history and theory, visual cultures, philosophy and gender studies, as well as creative and arts practitioners.
Mentira y engaño en política
Hoy en día, los políticos buscan no solamente inducir creencias falsas u ocultar información a los ciudadanos, sino modificar o distorsionar la percepción que estos tienen de la realidad y estropear sus mecanismos de crítica y deliberación. Frente a este complejo panorama, Mentira y engaño en política es una contribución académica a la reflexión sobre las peculiaridades de este fenómeno, su relación con diferentes ámbitos de la ciencia y la cultura (la economía, la comunicación, la religión y el psicoanálisis), y algunos de sus efectos más preocupantes.
Women Professors
This book explores the career paths of Australian women who have succeeded in achieving professorships and beyond, where for the most part, such positions are predominately occupied by males. It also explores the gendered culture that exists across faculties and universities as reported by participants in a survey questionnaire of 525 new professors (female and male), and nearly 30 interviews of women in Australian higher education, either in small focus groups or individually. Futher, it identifies catalysts for and inhibitors of success for women and looks in depth at “the boys’ club” and how it impacts women’s progression. The book also highlights how critical life decisions — d...
Gendered Futures in Higher Education
This volume addresses the ways in which gender takes shape in and is shaped by higher education environments. Focusing on historical knowledge and contemporary experience, the contributors identify several key gender issues affecting students, faculty, and leaders in higher education. They examine such diverse topics as what lessons women's colleges have to offer, violence on campus, women faculty and part-time employment, and intersecting identities of race and gender, and they apply critical perspectives to suggest needed change. While they may not agree on the necessary strategies to improve higher education environments, they do agree that those environments are currently deeply and problematically gendered.
