Ideal for scholars and students of critical pedagogy, philosophy of education, and political theory, this collection delineate the necessity of critical consciousness through education, and provides ways of speaking back against authoritarian control of imaginative and critical capacities.
"Yancy provides a passionate introduction describing the origins of this project, which includes 14 chapters written by scholars from the US, Canada, England, and New Zealand. The primary themes covered include racism and white supremacy, education for democracy, critical thinking, and the challenges of teaching for critical consciousness in an era of ascending right populism. The chapters, which are written with clarity and extensively sourced, range in outlook, approaching their subjects from historical, philosophical, political, sociological, and pedagogical perspectives. This book's primary audiences include advanced students, teacher educators, educational theorists, and philosophers of education."
