Publisher's Synopsis

This collection addresses the emergence of new management masculinities in all forms of educational institutions and systems. Arguing that inclusive management structures, practices and membership are essential for inclusive education, the contributors stress the need for men to manage their masculinity in these educational contexts, and the need for women to manage both themselves and the masculinities that confront them in order to survive. Offering comprehensive and in-depth coverage of the situation, this book: Contextualises the emergence of the new management masculinities historically, socially and within global and local relationships Relates experiences of the new management from both male and female perspectives in different countries and different sectors of education Offers clear and practical guidance for changing education management in order that it might become more inclusive in both practice and outcome. Drawing upon the work of key theorists of the social relations of gender from Europe, North America and Australia, this is a thorough, thoughtful and stimulating look at a major concern in contemporary education management.
