This handbook explores feeling like an ‘imposter’ in higher
education and what this can tell us about contemporary educational
inequalities. Asking why imposter syndrome matters now, we
investigate experiences of imposter syndrome across social
locations, institutional positions, and intersecting inequalities.
Our collection queries advice to fit-in with the university, and
authors reflect on (not)belonging in, with and against educational
institutions. The collection advances understandings of imposter
syndrome as socially situated, in relation to entrenched
inequalities and their recirculation in higher education. Chapters
combine creative methods and linger on the figure of the
‘imposter’ - wary of both individualising and celebrating
imposters as lucky, misfits, fraudsters, or failures, and
critically interrogating the supposed universality of imposter
syndrome.
