Fanon and Education Kartoniert (TB)

Fanon and Education: Thinking Through Pedagogical Possibilities challenges conventional education to go beyond the formal procedures of schooling to engage in the making of multiple meanings of our world. Understanding education requires a holistic approach that extends beyond contemporary classrooms. Education must also be inclusive addressing questions of difference diversity and power as conceptualized through the lens of class ethnicity gender disability sexuality religion language and indigeneity. These issues are thought of in the context of Fanon's oeuvre to articulate a soc ial theory and progressive educational politics that can help us understand difference as political as well as dominant schooling as a form of internalized oppression that works differently on myriad bodies. Fanon and Education will have a broad appeal to readers who want to engage Fanon's ideas in the schooling and educational politics of change and transformation. It should be read by all students teachers educational practitioners community activists and researchers. This book will have a particular appeal for educators in teacher training colleges as well as for graduate instruction in university departments of education social work and sociology.
