Feminist Responses to the Neoliberalization of the University: From Surviving to Thriving - Paperback
Details
by Abby Palko (Editor), Sonalini Sapra (Editor), Jamie Wagman (Editor)
This book argues that neoliberal discourses prevalent in higher education seek to undermine, commodify, and co-opt the radical, transformative work that many gender and women's studies departments, programs, and centers are doing. The contributors to the collection discuss their responses to these challenges in and out of the classrooms, from mentorship and activism to active allyship and experimental pedagogies. They aim to inspire a new wave of feminist consciousness raising that will encourage transformative ways of engaging with the university and serve as doorways to new understandings of productivity and creativity.
