Theory and Resistance in Education

<b>Reissued with a new introduction from Henry A. Giroux this classic work provides theoretical and political tools for addressing how pedagogy knowledge resistance and power can be analyzed within and across a variety of cultural spheres including but not limited to the schools. </b>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 argues that resistance is not an option but a necessity. The book includes a foreword by Paulo Freire and a preface by Stanley Aronowitz.
