Anti-Racism, Feminism, and Critical Approaches to Education (Discussion of feminist pedagogy begins on p. 129)
by Roxana Ng, Pat Staton, Joyce Scane. 173 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

This book maintains that there has not been sufficient dialogue and cross-fertilization between various forms of critical approaches to education, notably multicultural/anti-racist education, feminist pedagogy, and critical pedagogy. Contributors from Canada and the United States address educational issues relevant to aboriginal peoples, people of color, and people of religious minorities in light of feminist and critical pedagogical theory. They are sensitive and responsive to the power relations operative in a setting, and address the multiple and contradictory subjectivities of teachers and learners on the basis of race, gender, class, religion, ethnicity, age, and ability.

by Michael W. Apple, Dennis Carlson. 358 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

The essays in this volume explore the educational implications of unsettling shifts in politics, economics, popular culture, & social theory associated with postmodernism. These shifts, the authors suggest, are deeply contradictory & may lead in divergent political directions-some of them quite dangerous.
