Marine Spatial Planning, Brexit and the island of Ireland
Brexit poses major institutional and governance challenges for the island of Ireland, not least in the area of Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) and the cooperative governance and integrated management of shared marine spaces and ecosystems. To date, MSP scholarship has not delved into the complex processes that construct marine borders and has failed to acknowledge how the same border may have different boundary qualities across a range of instituti…
Re-tracing the Haole female teacher–traveler in Hawaii
Within this article I draw on the use of stories and interpretative reading practices: my own personal story and the literature of Asian American writer, Lois Yamanaka, to explore the racialization of social groups in Hawaii within a critical postcolonial perspective. I ask how we might learn to 'read back' to the colonial story of Hawaii without surrendering to a reification of the very structures of racial oppression and supremacy that drove th…
Girls, computers, and ‘becoming’
Through a feminist content analysis of young women's writing and reflections, this study gives evidence of how a school-based new literacy project shared knowledge in a public voice about the irreducible and complex world of ‘becoming’ a girl. This project, called The Pink Voice, was conducted in a large urban centre on the West Coast of Canada. The paper explores the development of school-based new literacy practices that takes up forms of femin…

By looking at how particular women have constructed their private literary experiences, I suggest that there is much to be gleaned from these examples that points to reading as a negotiated relational practice, able …
Disappearing acts
To resuscitate means to revive or make go on. This paper is an exploration of my first six months at a Canadian university as a doctoral student. Through a chronological narrative, I explore my experiences through the governing relations of the academy as a way to provoke dialogue about the role of feminist researcher in the institution. By comparing feminine subjectivity of the ‘woman returner’ (Hughes, 2002 Hughes, C. 2002. Beyond the poststruc…
Contingent Conditions of Change
This article explores how critical pedagogy and theatre arts can examine difference, change, and transformative possibilities in public spheres of educational practice. This narrative study offers a useful contribution on how theory, research, and practice can contribute to new ways of framing transformative feminist pedagogy in school cultures. I give an overview of critical pedagogy and the intersectionalities between concepts of liberatory ped…
