Abstract
In January 1989, I was fresh from three years of work as a secondary-school teacher in rural Zimbabwe and from a round-the-world trip home that had culminated in a six-week, cross-country visit through pre-Tiananmen Square China. I was returning to graduate school at the University of Toronto and had enrolled in my first course, titled “International Academic Relations,” offered by Professor Ruth Hayhoe. There I arrived dressed in baggy jeans and clunky boots bought at the new tourist market in Beijing, with self-cut hair and no particular career aspiration. I viewed the masters degree as a short period of respite, providing space for my reintroduction to Canada and time to make sense of the experience I had had of being a volunteer expatriate educator, working for a foreign government in a part of the world that was scarred by colonialism, civil war, and many iterations of “development.”
