Queer Precarities in and out of Higher Education looks at queer
scholars pushing against institutional structures, and the queer
knowledge that gets pushed out by universities. It provides insight
into the work of, in and beyond academia as it is un-done in the
contemporary (post)Covid moment, not least by queer
academic-activists. This radical un-doing represents cycles of
queer precarity, pragmatism and participation both situating and
questioning the 'queer arrival' of institutionalized programmes and
presences (e.g. queer and gender studies degrees, prominent and
public feminist academics). In this book, the contributors push
back against contemporary educational precarity, mobilizing queer
insight and insistence; and push back against confinement of the
University, socially and spatially. The collection brings together
academic-activist perspectives to extend understandings of
experiences of marginalization and inequality in higher education.
It also documents the diversity of tactics with which queers
negotiate and resist the various, shifting and interconnected forms
of precarity and privilege found on the edges of academia.
Contributors consider these issues from inside/outside academia and
across career course, challenging the 'queer arrival' as emanating
outward from the university to the community, from the academic to
the activist, or from a state of privilege to a place of precarity.
