A Textbook of Inter-Cultural Pedagogy

Abstract

Using excerpts from select biographical novels and stories, Renate Nestvogel offers an insight into aspects of female socialisation during youth and adolescence in cultures and societies across the world. The texts are introduced by (among other things) a research survey of concepts of socialisation, female socialisation, gender relations, childhood and adolescence. The literary excerpts are grouped by topic and are accompanied by sophisticated theoretical introductions to various aspects of socialisation, such as, living arrangements, child labour, fantasy, socialisation of gender roles, and socialisation of the body. This publication represents the final issue of the series “Introduction to Pedagogical Women’s Studies”, a series intended to serve as a basis for educational studies.
