| Resumen: |
Este libro destaca las experiencias de investigadoras y docentes feministas que inician su carrera desde una perspectiva internacional en una academia cada vez más neoliberal. Ofrece un nuevo ángulo a un debate significativo y cada vez más importante sobre el espÃritu de la educación superior y el lugar del sector en la sociedad. La educación superior cambia rápidamente, está cada vez más impulsada por el mercado y es precaria. En este contexto, ingresar a la academia como académico al inicio de su carrera presenta tanto desafÃos como oportunidades. Los académicos que inician su carrera frecuentemente enfrentan la perspectiva de trabajar con contratos de duración determinada, con poca seguridad y sin perspectivas seguras de avance, mientras buscan constantemente el siguiente puesto. Ser una académica feminista añade una capa adicional de complejidad: el espÃritu de la universidad mercantilizada, donde los estudiantes son cada vez más vistos como "clientes", puede no encajar bien con una polÃtica de igualdad para todos. Los valores y la práctica feministas pueden proporcionar un medio para superar los desafÃos, pero también pueden traer complicaciones. |

| Summary : |
This book highlights the experiences of feminist early career researchers and teachers from an international perspective in an increasingly neoliberal academy. It offers a new angle on a significant and increasingly important discussion on the ethos of higher education and the sector's place in society. Higher education is fast-changing, increasingly market-driven, and precarious. In this context entering the academy as an early career academic presents both challenges and opportunities. Early career academics frequently face the prospect of working on fixed term contracts, with little security and no certain prospect of advancement, while constantly looking for the next role. Being a feminist academic adds a further layer of complexity: the ethos of the marketising university where students are increasingly viewed as 'customers' may sit uneasily with a politics of equality for all. Feminist values and practice can provide a means of working through thechallenges, but may also bring complications. |
