A Decolonial Perspective
University Audit Cultures and Feminist Praxis
An Institutional Ethnography
Drawing on an unprecedented institutional ethnography of UK universities, this book uses feminist and gender lenses to critique the power, culture and structure of Higher Education institutions. Challenging the myths of how academia is governed by audit processes, it provides an opportunity to re-read and re-write these institutions from within.

This book addresses the key challenges in collaborative research in the arts, humanities and social sciences.
