Editorial Reviews

"The brilliance of the International Critical Pedagogy Reader is its audacity to de-colonize the taken for granted 'Center-Periphery' exporting model of critical pedagogy—creating, instead, a powerful place for subaltern voices to be heard. This comprehensive, illuminating, and timely edited book re-inserts the centrality of both the 'critical' and political coherence, remaining loyal to principles of liberation and emancipation. The International Critical Pedagogy Reader makes it powerfully clear that critical pedagogy is a way of life that does not require courage to be critical but simply demands coherence, humility, and ethics." —Donaldo Macedo, Distinguished Professor of Arts and Education, University of Massachusetts Boston

"Intellectually engaging and emotionally inspiring. Relevant global coverage to inform reflective practitioners, and a scholarly companion for educators motivated by social and pedagogical justice." —Juliana McLaughlin, Senior Lecturer, Queensland University of Technology, Australia and Past President, Australian and New Zealand Comparative and International Education Society

"With such a comprehensive blend of particulars and universals, local and global, this reader assumes an inimitable encyclopedic significance. Indispensable for educational professionals, researchers, and students, it will engender innumerable milestones in educational research across the globe."—Dev Pathak, Assistant Professor of Sociology, South Asian University, India

"Curating essays from over 20 countries around the world, the International Critical Reader shows how critical pedagogy is being reframed and reinvented philosophically, politically, and pedagogically in relation to contextual, cultural, social, and economic sensibilities and specificities. Widening the critical pedagogical lens beyond Western countries, this reader is an essential reference source for all students, academics, social activists, and researchers who subscribe to the view that the ‘struggle for freedom, equality, and social justice is never an act of courage, but an act of intellectual honesty.’" —Juliet Perumal, Faculty of Education, University of Johannesburg, South Africa

"This reader is destined to become a pivotal book in critical pedagogy. It will reshape the field by extending critical pedagogy’s geography and issues. A must-read for educators committed to decolonizing pedagogy." —Carmel Borg, Faculty of Education, University of Malta, Malta

"Paulo Freire has said that critical pedagogy can transform the world for the benefit of humanity. This volume shows the extent to which critical pedagogy has itself now become a global phenomenon and the impact it has made on the theory and practice of radical education around the world." —Mike Neary, University of Lincoln, United Kingdom

"The International Critical Pedagogy Reader holds the keys to the forthcoming evolution of this discipline in the near future. Indispensable not only for professors, students and researchers of critical pedagogy but also for critical sociology, cultural theory, and cultural studies professionals." —Eugenio-Enrique Cortés-Ramírez, Universidad de Castilla – La Mancha, Spain

"This book brings us a powerful discussion on critical pedagogy from around the world. All concerns exposed in this collection are the same concerns held by many critical scholars to empower public education and teachers. It is a crucial book for graduate and undergraduate students in education, as well as for public school teachers." —Alvaro Moreira Hypolito, Associate Professor, Federal University of Pelotas, Brazil
