本文通过对联合国各组织的政策文本和20世纪90年代以来的学术工作进行比较分析，探讨了母亲如何被简单化地描绘为受过教育从而有利于女儿上学，或被剥夺教育从而损害女儿的未来前景。利用对巴基斯坦农村母亲的半结构化访谈，将这些全球比较与当地叙述进行对话，说明母亲的愿望如何促进女儿的教育机会。有人认为，母亲的主体性有可能为全球政策话语提供信息，以调查母亲在物质和社会约束背景下的抱负和变革潜力。该文件提出了一种知情的教育研究和决策方法，旨在了解母亲支持女儿教育的过程。
Through a comparative analysis of policy texts from UN organisations and scholarly work since the 1990s this paper examines how mothers are portrayed in simplistic terms, as educated thus beneficial for their daughters’ schooling, or deprived of education causing detriment to their daughters’ future prospects. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with mothers from rural Pakistan, these global comparisons are brought into conversation with local narratives showing how mothers’ aspirations facilitate daughters’ educational opportunities. It is argued that mothers’ subjectivities have a potential to inform global policy discourses for investigating the aspirational and transformational potential of mothers in contexts of material and social constraint. The paper proposes an informed approach to educational research and policy making which seeks to understand the processes surrounding mothers’ support for their daughters’ education.
