Reinventing Pedagogy of the Oppressed

I would recommend this book as a must-have for teacher educators to reflect and explore alternative models of teacher education as well as teachers and educational researchers committed to critical theory and literacies as it provides an excellent overview of the world through a Freirean lens and within different settings. * Educational Review *
At a time of growing authoritarian movements across the globe, the work of Paulo Freire stands out as a prescient beacon of struggle and hope. Reinventing Pedagogy of the Oppressed: Contemporary Critical Perspectives builds on that political ideal and memory of resistance and in doing so brilliantly reinvents and extends Freire work by engaging it from a variety of disciplines, studies, and emancipatory concerns. In this book, theory and practice emerge in a fresh and original appropriation of Paulo’s work at a time when education as the foundation for critical thought and practice is in crisis. This is a brilliant and important addition to a Freire’s work that should be read by everyone who believes that education is central to politics and those modes of resistance that make a radical democracy possible. * Henry Giroux, Professor for Scholarship in the Public Interest and Paulo Freire Distinguished Scholar in Critical Pedagogy, McMaster University, Canada *
Reinventing Pedagogy of the Oppressed: Contemporary Critical Perspectives is written in an accessible manner and is empirically rich. * International Review of Education *
