Conflicts in Curriculum Theory: Challenging Hegemonic Epistemologies

By João M. Paraskeva

Book Overview

This book challenges educators to be agents of change, to take history into their own hands, and to make social justice central to the educational endeavor. Paraskeva embraces a pedagogy of hope championed by Paulo Freire where people become conscious of their capacity to intervene in the world to make it less discriminatory and more humane.
