Full Description
Transnational Feminist Pedagogies: Meanings, Methods, and Experiences explores how transnational feminist pedagogies are practiced, challenged, and reimagined in contemporary classrooms.
This interdisciplinary volume brings together a rich collection of contributions that examine the evolving terrain of higher education through the lens of transnational and decolonial feminist theories. The book addresses pressing issues including the corporatization of higher education, censorship, and the negotiation of identity within institutional frameworks. Contributors from across the globe offer strategies for teaching under political and institutional duress, while centering collaboration, social movements, and marginalized voices. Through case studies, curricula, and reflections on learning and unlearning, the book provides concrete pedagogical tools that respond to the challenges of teaching in a time of heightened surveillance, precarity, and resistance.
Ideal for students and educators in Women's and Gender Studies, Sociology, Education, and related fields, Transnational Feminist Pedagogies: Meanings, Methods, and Experiences will resonate with those committed to critical pedagogy, intersectional analysis, and transnational collaboration in both theory and practice.
