Summary

World, Class, Womenbegins the extraordinarily important task of bringing a postcolonial, feminist voice to critical pedagogy and, by extension explores how current debates about education could make a contribution to feminist thought. Robin Truth Goodman deftly weaves together the disciplines of literature, postcolonialism, feminism, and education in order to theorize how the shrinking of the public sphere and the rise of globalization influence access to learning, what counts as knowledge, and the possibilities of a radical feminism.

Author Biography

Robin Truth Goodman is an assistant professor of English at Florida State University and a Global Fellow at the International Institute of the University of California at Los Angeles.
