Theoretical studies in curriculum have begun to move into cultural studies - one increasingly visible sector of which is queer theory. Teaching Positions Knowledge of Bodies brings together scholars in the field of education - primarily but not exclusively in curriculum - in this volume on queer theory in education. In his introduction, the editor outlines queer theory as it is emerging in the field of education, its significance for all scholars and teachers, and its relation to queer theory in literacy theory and more generally, in the humanities.
