Description:
This book represents the editors' intention to disrupt cycles of thinking about the place of queer theory in educational research. With contributions from both those who find queer theory problematic, and those who see a productive place for it in education and research, The Cultural Politics of Queer Theory in Education Research aims to encourage dialogue about the objects and subjects of queer research, the forms of politics incited by the use of queer theory in education, and the methodological approaches used by scholars when queer(y)ing. This book was originally published as a special issue of Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education.
