O knihe

Continuing to Disrupt the Status Quo? Young and New Women Professors of
Educational Leadership was conceptualized as a follow-up to Breaking Into the All-
Male Club: Female Professors of Educational Administration (Mertz, 2009), a book
about and by many women who were the first women faculty admitted into departments
of educational administration primarily in the 1970's and 1980's. This book offers
narratives of those women new to the field of educational leadership and makes
comparisons to those stories shared by the veteran women in the field to highlight both
similarities and differences. Continuing to Disrupt the Status Quo? Young and New Women Professors of Educational
Leadership is a literary way to preserve and continue the tradition of the sharing/addition of voices to the field of
educational leadership that was begun with Breaking Into the All-Male Club. It begs the question, "If the women from
Breaking Into the All-Male Club are "firsts," "pioneers," and "groundbreakers," then who are we, the young and new
women of the field? If the entrance of women into the field of educational leadership was threatening enough for the
veteran women (and still is for many of the young and new women), then the addition of age and ethnicity as confounding
factors has likely created a cacophony of dissonance forty years later! Continuing to Disrupt the Status Quo? represents a
decade of stories (2002-2012) from young and new women to the field of educational leadership.
