Rezensionen

"Education and Social Change in Latin America is a hopeful book which brings together contextualised, current, concrete struggles with theory and philosophy. The politics of knowledge discussed here who educates, how, why, for whom, for which sort of economic system is so important, because education shouldn't be reduced to textbooks and grades; it's life, it's how we define ourselves, it's what sort of humanity we want." Tamara Pearson, Editor of Venezuelanalysis.com
