Quality Education
This open‑access volume, edited by Muchativugwa L. Hove and Martha Matashu, explores the complex interplay between education, social justice, gendered violence, and human rights within South African schools and universities. Drawing on rich and diverse classroom-based scholarship, the contributors examine how the “economies of education” and social justice imperatives shape the lived experiences of women, children, and marginalized communities. They also investigate how gendered violence reflects broader human rights violations and how human rights discourse influences interpretations of quality education. The book delves into the linguistic tensions around defining “quality education” across public and private sectors. It challenges readers to envision transformative futures in a democratic South Africa by scrutinizing curriculum relevance, epistemic disobedience, and the politics of power, place, and language.
