商品簡介
Giroux's theory, and the bulk of his commentary on society, education and culture, stems from his perception of democracy. Working from the idea that Giroux's writings are indispensable for those who educate future teachers and democratic leaders, Doyle and Singh (both education, Memorial U. of Canada) describe integrating Giroux's understanding of critical and reflective pedagogy into a variety of institutional settings. They begin by presenting a collection of writings that serve as a basis of their engagement, then work through the commentary and experience of students and cultural workers on issues such as the role of capitalism and higher education, the political conception of the public intellectual, and the practice of educators and others working both inside and outside of the university.
