It offers a new angle on a significant and increasingly important discussion on the ethos of higher education and the sector's place in society. Higher education is fast-changing, increasingly market-driven, and precarious. In this context entering the academy as an early career academic presents both challenges and opportunities. Early career academics frequently face the prospect of working on fixed term contracts, with little security and no certain prospect of advancement, while constantly looking for the next role. Being a feminist academic adds a further layer of complexity: the ethos of the marketising university where students are increasingly viewed as ?customers? may sit uneasily with a politics of equality for all. Feminist values and practice can provide a means of working through thechallenges, but may also bring complications. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Gender and Education,$x2524-6453 606 $aSex 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aOrganization and Leadership 606 $aSociology of Education 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aHigher Education. 615 24$aOrganization and Leadership. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 676 $a370.81 702 $aThwaites$b Rachel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPressland$b Amy$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153101103321 996 $aBeing an Early Career Feminist Academic$92538905 997 $aUNINA
