Social Justice Education for Teachers: Paulo Freire and the Possible Dream

Product Description: The book traces the reception of Freire's ideas in the USA, Canada, Latin America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia and provides some glimpses of topical yet seminal interventions in the philosophy of education, including studies of the relationships between Freire and Rousseau, Freire and Dewey, or Freire and Gramsci. In addition, it addresses how Freire's ideas could be implemented in urban education, both in the industrialized and developing world, and how the debates about globalization today need to be addressed also with the politics of liberation as a possible dream.
