PUBLIC INTELLECTUALS RADICAL DEMOCRACY AND SOCI...

Against a backdrop of a hegemonic  global economic arrangement that has spawned astounding
disparities in wealth  this book foregrounds seventeen intellectuals who are engaged in
resisting corporate values and in promoting social justice and human dignity. Ranging from
socially engaged professors with a track record in grassroots involvement to popular educators
the interviewees challenge the manufactured consent produced by armies of intellectuals organic
to dominant ideologies. Public Intellectuals  Radical Democracy and Social Movements reminds us
that strategic silence and or indifference reproduces a common sense arrangement where critical
«reading of the world» (Freire  1987) is relegated to the periphery.
