Abstract

In de Britse media en onderwijsmiddens is er al een tijdje veel bezorgdheid over de houding van sommige jongens tegenover de school. Zij hebben het dan over 'laddishness', jongens die het helemaal niet 'cool' vinden om goed te presteren op school. De leerachterstand die jongens oplopen wordt dan ook dikwijls aan dit soort gedrag gekoppeld. Die redenering klopt niet helemaal, maar de reden waarom sommige jongens zo'n houding aannemen noopt wel tot verder onderzoek. Als je de motivatie van die jongens kan achterhalen, kan je ook effectiever bijsturen. De onderzoekers vroegen zich ook af of dit dominante gedrag een negatieve weerslag had op de schoolresultaten van meisjes. Mogelijk imiteren sommige meisjes dit gedrag.

Abstract

"Responding to increasing concerns about the harmful effects of so-called "lad culture" in British universities, and related "bro" and "frat" cultures in US colleges, this book is the first to explore and analyse the perspectives of university staff on these cultures, which students suggest foster the normalisation of sexism, homophobia, racism, sexual harassment and violence. Drawing on in-depth interviews with a broad range of staff and faculty across different types of universities in England, the book explores the following key questions: What is lad culture? How and where is it manifest in higher education and what are the effects on students and staff? How can "laddish" behaviour be explained? How can we theorise lad culture to enable us to better understand and challenge it? How do dynamics in the UK compare to so-called "bro" and "frat" cultures in US colleges? By examining the ways in which lad culture is understood and explained, the authors illustrate that current understandings of lad culture obscure the broader processes through which problematic attitudes, practices and educational climates are fostered. This enables a theorisation of lad culture that makes visible the gendered norms and intersecting structural inequalities that underpin it. This timely and accessible volume will be of great interest to anyone looking to understand and tackle sexism, sexual harassment and violence in and beyond university contexts. It will be of particular significance to researchers, undergraduate and postgraduate students, academics and policy makers in the fields of gender and sexuality in education, higher education, and sociology of education"--
