Under Pressure. The Regulation of Sexualities in South African Secondary Schools
Angebote / Angebote:
Drawing on in-depth interviews with learners, teachers, school managers and parents, the book offers a compelling portrait of an education system rife with homophobia. It provides a detailed account of how school communities understand and respond to homosexuality, and in doing so uncovers a persistent culture of enforced heterosexuality. But Under Pressure also offers a way forward. It reveals an enormous potential for diversity programmes and identifies a number of entry points for change. Most importantly, it shows that all of us - teachers, parents, school managers and policy-makers - have a role to play in combating homophobia. Under Pressure is compulsory reading for anyone interested in education, policy, social justice, gender equality or sexual rights.
