Che Guevara, Paulo Freire, and the pedagogy of revolution

McLaren, Peter 1948- (Author).

Summary: Che Guevara, Paulo Freire, and the Pedagogy of Revolution examines what is currently at stake — culturally, politically, and educationally — in contemporary global capitalist society. Written by one of the world's most renowned critical educators, this book evaluates the message of Che Guevara and Paulo Freire for contemporary politics in general and education in particular. Forcefully argued and eloquently written, Che Guevara, Paulo Freire, and the Pedagogy of Revolution is a clarion call for building a new social order premised on the ideas and philosophy of two of the most important revolutionary figures of this century. It is an indispensable reference point for building transnational alliances between the North American and Latin American. Che Guevara, Paulo Freire is the best introduction available to the ideas and philosophy of these two iconoclastic figures.
