ATHENA3 Teaching gender in social work
This book questions the fact that social work education often fails to incorporate gender, even though most of the people that use social work services are women, a majority of social workers are women, and women have had throughout history a significant role in the establishment of social work. The profession of social work started to emerge early in the twentieth century, when femininity was constructed in a way that supported the public/private division. This applied, in particular, to a woman’s...

ATHENA3 Teaching visual culture in an interdisciplinary classroom
feminist (re)interpretations of the field
Visual literacy is important for understanding the role of visual culture as a key factor in processes of globalization, technologization and multiculturalization, which are all part of our historicity. Certainly, the study of the visual is not limited to the study of images, but also of their effects, material practices they entail and creative potential they offer. Therefore, it is of critical importance to work out new approaches to study both epistemologies and ontologies of the visual. This...

ATHENA3 Teaching gender, diversity and urban space
an intersectional approach between gender studies and spatial disciplines
This volume presents a theoretical framework and diverse educational tools that can be used to incorporate gender and sexuality into Spatial Disciplines and the concepts of space and urbanity into Women’s and Gender Studies. The book recognizes the fact that the concepts of space, place and urbanity have a rather minor presence within European Women’s and Gender Studies. Likewise, the concepts of gender and sexuality(ies) are poorly covered within the “spatial” disciplines and university departments....

ATHENA3 Teaching subjectivity
travelling selves for feminist pedagogy
This collection of essays moves from a point that regards the process of constructing women’s “nomadic” identities as informed by the notions of geographical and cultural dislocation, transcultural hibridity, history, loss, memory, contamination and their effect in the subject’s perception of the Real. Within this frame of thought, writing the experience of the ontological “travelling” and “dislocation” is also understood as political narrative and as one of the essential tools for promoting critical...
