The book encompasses multiple disciplinary perspectives, venturing beyond sociology via geographical, linguistic, psychological and socio-ecological domains to demonstrate how ruraling brings new insights to matters such as teaching, ethics, gender identity, tertiary education, and inclusion. Leading scholars, including Roberts, Green, Reid, Guenther, Beach and White, challenge rural education researchers to create rural theory: to subvert the unquestioned application of urban-grounded theory to understanding rural contexts. It includes discussions on terminological debates, and paradigmatically diverse and well-designed research studies. This edited collection is an outcome of rural education researchers’ fora in the Australian Association for Research in Education (AARE), with a global relevance.
