Intersectionality, Transnationalism, and the History of Education cover

This volume brings together a diverse range of contributors to explore the significance of intersectionality and transnationalism, with reference to the history of education. The chapters cover a range of educational spaces and places and demonstrate the possibilities that theoretical approaches can offer to scholars at all levels of their academic career. The chapters focus specifically on women’s activism in order to maintain a coherent framework of research that is brought together in an introduction and concluding thoughts. The significance of gender as relational and a symbol of power ensures that men and masculinities are not overlooked but recognized as integral to understanding gender dynamics as they affected women’s education and the ways in which that education took place.

“One of the immediate strengths of this book is the global community of scholars assembled to tackle the impacts of networks, time and place within transnational contexts. … This collection is impressive in its depth and breadth and underscores the importance of transnational and intersectional perspectives. ... this edited collection is precisely the kind of scholarship that strengthens and further invigorates the history of education.” (Tanya Fitzgerald, History of Education, April 25, 2024)
