Queer Studies and Education: An International Reader de Nelson M. Rodriguez

Queer Studies and Education: An International Reader

Editat de Nelson M. Rodriguez, Robert C. Mizzi, Louisa Allen, Rob Cover
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 dec 2023

Bazându-ne pe datele furnizate de Oxford University Press, remarcăm că Queer Studies and Education se constituie ca o resursă academică fundamentală pentru înțelegerea modului în care teoria queer poate reforma sistemele educaționale contemporane. Într-un format dens de 408 pagini, acest volum colectiv analizează categoria „queer” nu doar ca identitate, ci ca o poziție critică necesară pentru avansarea justiției sociale în școli. Subliniem faptul că autorii nu se limitează la o analiză teoretică abstractă, ci investighează manifestările heteronormativității într-un spectru politic larg, de la politici de stat până la interacțiuni cotidiene în sălile de clasă.

Merită menționat că această lucrare extinde cadrul propus de Queer Teaching - Teaching Queer de Declan Fahie, integrând date noi dintr-o diversitate geografică mai amplă, ce depășește contextul european sau nord-american. În timp ce volumul lui Fahie se concentrează pe deconstrucția regimurilor de adevăr, Queer Studies and Education aduce în prim-plan o critică aplicată a neoliberalismului ca barieră în calea schimbării sociale autentice. Această abordare continuă linia de cercetare stabilită de Nelson M. Rodriguez în lucrări anterioare precum Queer Pedagogies sau LGBTQ+ Studies in Education, unde educația este văzută ca un spațiu de rezistență și redefinire a normelor.

Structura editorială facilitează o lectură analitică, oferind instrumente pentru educatori și activiști de a recunoaște „heterodominanța” și „heteropatriarhatul”. Spre deosebire de Critical Concepts in Queer Studies and Education, care se axează pe definirea terminologică, acest „International Reader” pune accentul pe praxisul critic, invitând la o interpretare pluralistă a modului în care incluziunea poate fi implementată dincolo de simpla integrare superficială.

Această lucrare este esențială pentru cercetătorii și cadrele didactice care doresc să implementeze strategii de incluziune autentică. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a intersecției dintre gen, sexualitate și structurile de putere instituționale. Este un instrument teoretic solid care oferă perspective internaționale asupra modului în care educația poate deveni un motor pentru justiția socială queer, depășind limitele pedagogiei tradiționale.

Descriere

Queer Studies and Education: An International Reader explores how the category queer, as a critical stance or set of perspectives, contributes to opportunities individually and collectively for advancing queer social justice within the context and concerns of schooling and education. The collection takes up this general goal by presenting a cross-section of international perspectives on queer studies in education to demonstrate commonalities, differences, uncertainties, or pluralities across a diverse range of national contexts and topics, drawing a heightened awareness of heterodominance and heteropatriarchy, and to conceptualize non-normative and non-essentialist imaginings for more inclusive educational environments.Collectively, the chapters critically engage with heteronormativity and normativity more generally as a political spectrum, over a broad range of formal and informal sites of education, and against a backdrop of critiques of liberalism and neoliberalism as the frameworks through which "achievable" social change and belonging are fostered, particularly within educational settings. Taken together, the chapters assembled in Queer Studies and Education invite researchers, scholars, educators, activists, and other cultural workers to examine the multiplicity of contemporary (international) work in queer studies and education with readers' interpretations of queer's deployment across the chapters forming the compass for which to arrive at fresh insights and forms of queer critical praxis.

Recenzii

This book takes us on a fascinating journey across various countries, shedding light on queer perspectives in education. It engages with the potential of queer as a critical approach to foster just and ethical relations in education. Each chapter in the book provides direction for further possibilities and alternate ways of imagining education for a queer-to-come future. It is essential reading for academics and students working to end heteropatriarchal dominance and oppression and provides fresh insights for this endeavor.
Advocates and activists focused on inclusion and accommodation of sexual and gender differences in schooling, teacher education, and other educational domains will find this eclectic edited book useful to build knowledge and understanding of queer and trans identities and issues in racial and other intersections and in global contexts. In doing so, this book places student integrity and agency at the heart of education.
Queer Studies and Education: An International Reader showcases the rich pathways through which queer studies in education is currently travelling - regionally, theoretically, and practically. The collection is deliberately future oriented; readers who engage this text will be inspired to take queer studies elsewhere. It will stimulate thinking and debate among undergraduates and postgraduate students across diverse disciplines and country contexts.
Melding queer with education, this collection of essays unsettles heteronormative assumptions in education, addresses racism and racialization processes within institutions, and presents limitations in queer pedagogy. This reader underscores the need to examine queerness and education continuously in an era where neoliberal regimes, homophobia and queer visibility collide, pointing to a critical assessment of pedagogical practices and curriculum, queer or not. Queer Studies and Education is a must-read book and an urgent theoretical intervention that is international in scope, global in reach and timely in its subject matter.
