Review

'Madeleine Arnot has been at the forefront of feminist scholarship in education since the early 1980s. This collection of her essays charts an absorbing intellectual history of her engagements with key theorists in educational sociology and feminist theory and politics in education. It is sophisticated, provocative, lively and essential reading for all with an interest in gender.' - Professor Jane Kenway, University of South Australia

'Madeleine Arnot is perhaps the most sophisticated and subtle feminist theorist of the sociology of education now writing in English' - Professor Kathleen Weiler, Tufts University

'The book is written in an accessible way. It provides a useful summary of the main explanations of 'the problem of boys' and relates these explanations to the literature ... a welcome book to the field.' - Gender and Education

'The achievements of an intellectual lifetime yet unfinished, all reduced to 288 tightly prose-packed pages, an attractive red and blue tome. Here is a sociological theory of gender relations that is critical and interpretative, comprehensive and uniquely experienced by the author ... This is a substantial contribution to feminist studies and the sociology of education...' - Emma Rich and John Evans, British Journal of Sociology of Education, Review Symposium

'Reproducing Gender is a valuable compilation of the writings of one of the leading writers in British sociology of education on the subject of gender ... The book is challenging and interesting work that invites us to explore the deep structures of educational thought and practice in the gender field.'' - Kathleen Lynch, British Journal of Sociology of Education, Review Symposium

'Written and published over more than twenty years, this collection of twelve essays represents a sustained engagement with the field of sociology of education through the lenses and problematics of gender reproduction theory and the question of power.' - Anthony Green, British Journal of Sociology of Education, Review Symposium

'This is a remarkable book of extensive scholarship and of theoretical originality and it will undoubtedly become a classic text in Gender Studies, Education Policy Studies and Studies in the Sociology of Education and Comparative Education.' - Cambridge Journal of Education

About the Author

Madeleine Arnot was the first to coin the term 'sociology of women's education' and can be seen to have started a new field of study - that in which feminists have engaged with dominant theories and research in the sociology of education. This well organised collection of essays introduces the readers to Arnot's major areas of concern; her early work on gender codes and her critique of Bernstein; her analysis of state educational policy in Britain and her most recent work on theorizing a feminist democratic education and ideal citizenship.
