Drawing on educational research, social and cultural theory, and contemporary feminist thought, this book interrogates the constraint and subordination which define the formation of young women's everyday subjectivities and identities. In exploring how girls and young women respond to increasing expectations of them as the vanguard of economic, social, and cultural change, contributors to this volume ask how social and educational aspiration interact with young women's developing and embodied identities. This book was originally published as a special issue of Pedagogy, Culture and Society.
