Description

Theory and Resistance in Education by Henry A. Giroux is reissued with a new introduction from the author. This classic work provides theoretical and political tools for addressing how pedagogy, knowledge, resistance, and power can be analysed within and across a variety of cultural spheres, including but not limited to schools.

The time for radical social change has never been so urgent, since the fate of an entire generation of young people, if not democracy itself, is at stake. Giroux argues that challenge gives new meaning to the importance of resistance, the relevance of pedagogy, and the significance of political agency. In a time of growing fascism, Giroux underscores that resistance is not an option but a necessity.

The book includes a foreword by Paulo Freire and a preface by Stanley Aronowitz.
