This edited collection challenges the urban-centric nature of much
feminist work on gender and education. The context for the book is
the radical reconfiguration of rural areas that has occurred in
recent decades as a result of globalisation. From a range of
diverse national contexts, including Kenya and South Africa,
Australia and Canada, and the United States and Pakistan, authors
explore the intersections between masculinity, femininity, and
rurality in education. In recognition of the heterogeneity of
categories such as 'rural girl' and 'rural boy' they attend to how
educational exclusions can be magnified by differences in relation
to social locations such as class, race, or sexuality. Similar
critical insights are brought to bear as authors examine what it
means to be a male or female teacher in rural environments.
Contributors draw on data ranging from contemporary feature films
to historical materials, along with detailed ethnographic work and
participatory approaches, to produce a compelling narrative of the
need to understand education as experienced by those who are not
part of the urban majority. This book was originally published as a
special issue of Gender and Education.
