Educating the Gendered Citizen: sociological engagements with national and global agendas
Autor Madeleine Arnoten Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 sep 2008
This book offers a unique introduction to the contribution that sociological research on the education of the citizen can make to these national and global debates. It brings together for the first time a selection of influential new and previously published papers by Madeleine Arnot on the theme of gender, education and citizenship. It describes feminist challenges to liberal democracy, the gendered construction of the ‘good citizen’ and citizenship education; it explores the implications of social change for the learner citizen and offers alternative gender-sensitive models of global citizenship education.
Reaching right to the heart of current debates, the chapters focus on:
- feminist democratic values in education
- teachers’ constructions of the gendered citizen
- European languages of citizenship
- the inclusion of women’s rights into English citizenship textbooks
- gender struggles for equality in school pedagogy and curriculum
- the implications of personalised learning for the individualised learner citizen
- globalisation and the construction of a global ethic for citizenship education
It will be an invaluable text for all those interested in citizenship education, gender studies, sociology of education, educational policy studies, critical pedagogy and curriculum studies and international or comparative education.

Recenzii
Lynn Davies, University of Birmingham:
There is without doubt a need for this book. No other collection or single authored book that I know of brings together gender, citizenship and education. Markets in UK and US and would be as a course book on postgraduate courses for pre-service and in-service teachers, and for Master’s programmes more broadly in education and the social sciences. There may be some market within policy makers and donor agencies, in terms of those promoting versions of ‘civic education’ in different countries. This would be a main text for a specialised course on citizenship education and recommended reading for modular work. Courses would be: PGCE courses for teachers of citizenship and history education; Masters’ programmes in citizenship and democracy; Modules on citizenship, democracy or human rights within an MA programme; Gender and education courses. There are also an increasing number of research students across the world doing work on citizenship education, particularly comparative work, who would benefit from being exposed to the ideas and imperatives in this book.
Kathleen Weiler:
I assume this book would become a central text in graduate courses in gender and education and policy studies. It will be used by scholars in these fields and would also be used in undergraduate courses.
Madeleine Arnot is one of the leading figures in gender and education internationally. Her work is widely known in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and in Europe and the developing world. Her many articles and co-authored books have made a powerful impact on the field of gender and education and her book Reproducing Gender? was very positively reviewed. She has been working in the field of gender, education, and citizenship for several years now and is probably the best-known scholar working in this area. This collection represents her ongoing work and I have not doubt it will be received with great interest and will become a seminal text. I strongly support publication of this book.
'This book critically synthesises the best of the debates in feminist theory over several decades. Written with agility and depth, the sociological engagements with national and global political agendas provide a much needed gender perspective in reconnecting the role of education with citizenship. I do not know of any book that covers in such depth such a gamut of topics, both at the domestic and international level, establishing the importance of researching the gendered citizen. Madeleine Arnot has offered us a remarkable research agenda, and insightful research findings, that will guide the debate and thinking on the gendered citizen for years to come. This is the kind of book that is a real tour de force in educational theory.' - Professor Carlos Alberto Torres, University of California Los Angeles, USA
'It is clear from Arnot’s work that gender sensitive and critical narratives of globalization and neoliberal educational reform have significant implications for citizenship education as it relates to engaging with both the redistributive and recognition elements of social justice, not only in terms of global poverty and the impact of transnational corporations/markets, but also in terms of addressing the politics of recognition vis-à-vis diversity and difference within and across nation states. This book is useful particularly in terms of its employment of theory in elaborating a political and gendered analysis of global citizenship education.' - Wayne Martino, University of Western Ontario, Educational Review Journal 2012

Descriere
Focusing on the relationship between gender, education and citizenship, this book explores, from a feminist perspective, how the concept of citizenship has been used in relation to gender, and how young people are being prepared for male and female forms of citizenship.
