Critical Pedagogy in Uncertain Times

This book brings together the most important figures in the evolution of Critical Pedagogy to provide comprehensive analyses of issues related to the struggle against the forces of neoliberalism and the imperial-induced privatization, not just in education, but in all of social life through the radical democratizing forces of critical pedagogy.

Macrine should be praised for her effort to assemble this collection of papers representing voices in critical pedagogy. With the more recent taming of critical pedagogy, Critical Pedagogy in Uncertain Times: Hope and Possibilities provides a reference point for critical scholar-activists, especially those new to the field, to gain a comprehensive understanding of how critical pedagogy helps to situate education within the larger politicaleconomic and social context.
