School policies, gender-sex-sexuality and ethno-cultural re-production in Sweden, Canada and Germany
(2012) p.365-382- Abstract
- I analyze the role of gender-sex-sexuality in school
policies in Sweden; Canada; and Germany. Policies concerning young people’s negotiations of gender-sex-sexuality in schools draw on specific understandings of societal belonging and cohesion.
Invariably such policies are part of national discourses regarding
values and norms of gender and relationships; informed by concepts
of ethnicized belonging. Furthermore; the analysis of school policy
texts allows insights into conceptualizations of young people
and their societal role in the context of ongoing neo-liberal reconfigurations of schools and societies.
