Belonging and adjustment for LGBTQ+ and non-LGBTQ+ students during the social transition to university
The transition to university can be challenging not only for the general student population but also for LGBTQ+ students, whose social experiences may be particularly demanding.In the current research, we explore first-year students' perceptions of belonging and social adjustment by (a) estimating whether such perceptions relate to achievement motivation, well-being, and academic performance, and (b) identifying whether these trends differ for LG…
Culturally responsive practices for teacher candidates

It’s the best thing I’ve done in a long while’
Pregnant and mothering schoolgirls have been identified as an educationally vulnerable group. Many are not welcomed in their mainstream schools and as a consequence, access a range of educational alternatives. This article presents the views and experiences of 14 young women in the English Midlands, who became pregnant while still of statutory school age, 12 of whom spent time in alternative educational settings. It is based on data gathered from…
Literature as laboratory
Anthropologists have long recognised the intersections between factual and fictional representations of other cultures, and have actively engaged in producing imaginative cultural translations alongside ethnographic accounts. This resulting ‘blurring of genres’ has also been investigated by anthropologists, but often at the expense of the imagined subject and the social, political, and cultural forces at work in the literary versions. Hilda Kuper…
Slappers like you don’t belong in this school’
Policy in England identifies pregnant schoolgirls as a particularly vulnerable group and emphasises the importance of education as a way of improving the life chances of those who become pregnant while young. This paper draws on repeat interviews conducted over a twelve‐month period to compare and contrast the stories of four young women. The narratives show that despite a common policy framework, there is great variability between schools in sta…

Girls and Exclusion
The widespread view that girls are succeeding in education and are therefore 'not a problem' is a myth. By drawing directly on girls' own accounts and experiences of school life and those of professionals working with disaffected youth, this book offers startling new perspectives on the issue of exclusion and underachievement amongst girls. This book demonstrates how the social and educational needs of girls and young women have slipped down the …
Ethnographic romance
This article situates Mamisa, the Swazi Warrior, in the rich tradition of settler writing and, more specifically, within the genre of imperial romance. It draws upon translation theory to argue that Allister Miller's novel is an extended act of ventriloquism that attempts to rewrite Swaziland by submerging the reader in a primitive world in order to open temporal and spatial borders to prospective pioneers and obliquely attract further European s…
