Abstract

ABSTRACT This article explores the impact of sexual harassment on one teacher – the paper’s author and, in doing so, opens up conversations about the micro-realities of gendered harassment in educational institutions. By using autoethnography as a method of inquiry and writing from the unique perspective of the survivor-researcher, the author sheds light on how sexual harassment is enacted through gendered language, the normalization of sexist practices, and power-relations in ways that inform whose voice is heard and whose gets silenced. By placing personal testimony and documentary evidence within a poststructuralist theoretical framework, feelings of powerlessness are merged with critical reflexivity and scholarly reflection to offer insights into the ways that institutional discourses and practices nurture and/or neuter individuals’ efficacy and career potential.

文化，投诉和保密:性骚扰的自我民族志探索

本文探讨了性骚扰对一名教师的影响——这篇论文的作者，在这样做的过程中，开启了关于教育机构性别骚扰微观现实的对话。作者将自我民族志作为一种调查方法，并从幸存者-研究者的独特视角进行写作，阐明了性骚扰是如何通过性别语言、性别歧视行为的正常化以及权力关系来实施的，从而告知谁的声音被听到，谁的声音被沉默。通过将个人证词和文献证据置于后结构主义的理论框架中，无能为力的感觉与批判性反思和学术反思相结合，提供了对制度话语和实践培养和/或中性个人效能和职业潜力的方式的见解。

期刊介绍： Gender and Education grew out of feminist politics and a social justice agenda and is committed to developing multi-disciplinary and critical discussions of gender and education. The journal is particularly interested in the place of gender in relation to other key differences and seeks to further feminist knowledge, philosophies, theory, action and debate. The Editors are actively committed to making the journal an interactive platform that includes global perspectives on education, gender and culture. Submissions to the journal should examine and theorize the interrelated experiences of gendered subjects including women, girls, men, boys, and gender-diverse individuals. Papers should consider how gender shapes and is shaped by other social, cultural, discursive, affective and material dimensions of difference. Gender and Education expects articles to engage in feminist debate, to draw upon a range of theoretical frameworks and to go beyond simple descriptions. Education is interpreted in a broad sense to cover both formal and informal aspects, including pre-school, primary, and secondary education; families and youth cultures inside and outside schools; adult, community, further and higher education; vocational education and training; media education; and parental education.
