| Abstract: | Through a feminist agenda that seeks to redress gender inequities through remedies of redistribution and recognition, this
paper draws on Fraser’s work (1997) to articulate a framework of transformative justice. In moving beyond the competing logics
underpinning such remedies, this framework adopts a transformative theory and politics in problematising and seeking to restructure
the inequitable gender differentiation of political-economic structures and social patterns of representation, interpretation
and communication. This framework of gender justice is presented as useful in evaluating the ideologies and practices of particular
schooling initiatives and thus is drawn on to critically assess three initiatives that currently seek to address issues of
social/gender equity in education within Australia: The New Basics Project, The Productive Pedagogies Framework and the Success
for Boys initiative. In particular, the paper critically explores these initiatives in terms of their capacities for enabling
or constraining a transformative redistributive and cultural gender justice. |
