Recenzii

I am excited by this book: It is a theoretically rich collection of work on what care - and feminist ethics of care - might mean in early childhood practice. Grounded in early childhood research, its insights challenge and delight in equal measure as they disrupt, broaden and search for transformative re-configurations of discourses and pedagogies of care.
Drawing on transdisciplinary insights and a rich array of theoretical perspectives, this book more than lives up to its promise of revisiting, challenging and reconceptualising how notions of a feminist ethics of care might imagined, articulated and enacted within the complex ecologies of ECEC settings. A deeply thought-provoking read, it invites us to push beyond conventional and comfortable ways of conceiving of an ethics of care in ECEC, and illuminates new, potentially transformative possibilities.
Taking aim from a range of theoretical perspectives, the essays gathered here raise important challenges to the often taken-for-granted place of care in early childhood education. Foregrounding and interrogating the complexities of care entanglements across the relational, political, mundane, and messy, this book reveals feminist theories of care that must be debated by all who work with young children.
