Subject to Identity: Knowledge, Sexuality, and Academic Practices in Higher Education

More about the book

Focusing on the academic experiences of three lesbian faculty members at a public research university, this ethnography employs poststructural theories to examine the complexities of knowledge, identity, and sexuality. It moves beyond traditional notions of identity and visibility to analyze how academic practices are intertwined with these concepts. Through this lens, the book invites readers to reconsider the dynamics of policy, identity, and knowledge as they manifest in fluid, relational contexts, urging a deeper understanding of their interconnectedness.
