4th Edition
The Critical Pedagogy Reader
Since its publication, The Critical Pedagogy Reader has firmly established itself as the leading collection of classic and contemporary essays by the major thinkers in the field of critical pedagogy. While retaining its comprehensive introduction, this thoroughly revised fourth edition includes updated section introductions, expanded bibliographies, and up-to-date classroom questions. The book is arranged topically around such issues as class, racism, gender/sexuality, language and literacy, and classroom issues for ease of usage and navigation. New reading selections cover topics such as youth activism, agency and affect, and practical implementations of critical pedagogy. Carefully attentive to both theory and practice, this new edition remains the definitive source for teaching and learning about critical pedagogy.
