This comprehensive volume delves into the intricate web of gendered and heteronormative norms permeating early childhood education (ECE) across the Global South, encompassing countries such as Brazil, China, Pakistan, South Africa, and Vietnam. The contributors to this book engage in a profound exploration of how gender, culture, religion, masculinity, sport, and conservative politics intertwine to perpetuate and challenge gendered and sexual norms. Through their insightful analyses, the book presents a diverse range of possibilities for disrupting and transforming these norms within early childhood educational contexts.

Drawing upon colonial and postcolonial discourses, the book emphasizes the profound entanglement of gender and sexuality in ECE with legacies of colonization and the surrounding social and cultural dynamics. It sheds light on our collective responsibility to address gender inequalities and injustices, recognizing the urgent need for transformative change.

This book is a valuable resource for researchers, faculty, and teacher educators with a keen interest in gender and sexuality in education, international and comparative education, and early childhood education. It offers a rich tapestry of perspectives and methodologies, fostering a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics at play and providing valuable insights into strategies for promoting gender equality and social justice in early childhood settings.
