Download or read book Critical Pedagogy written by Peter McLaren and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our educational system is in turmoil. Many would argue that it has been assaulted and oversimplified by the right. There is growing concern that we are becoming a liberal nation-state with an increasingly anti-liberal population and an electorate that is disinterested in politics. In this globalized world, the power of capital is so great that opposition to it is often discouraged and disheartened, leaving many citizens few political precepts by which to consider their institutions. This contemporary failure of vision has opened the way for the unimpeded return of the philosophy of the free market. As a result, social and educational policies are debated almost solely in terms of how they fit with the needs of the market. Social and ethical understandings are replaced by a failed economic theory that requires a radical constraint of our political and economic choices. Compassion for the poor, the market lets us know, is wrong-headed because any interference with the labor market will always result in unfortunate economic and social consequences. Moral issues are eclipsed by market needs. In Critical Pedagogy: Where Are We Now? the contributors discuss how the field of critical pedagogy should respond to such dire conditions in a way that is theoretically savvy and visionary, while concurrently contributing to the struggle to improve the lives of those most hurt by them. Critical Pedagogy is essential reading for every classroom teacher and pre-service teacher. It is also a valuable tool for use in undergraduate and graduate-level classrooms.

Download or read book Missionaries and Resistance in Guatemala written by Mario Trinidad and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-05 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Guatemala, the 36-year armed conflict from 1960 to 1996 claimed 200,000 lives, over two per cent of the population, and displaced a million more. In the 1970s and the 1980s the widespread and violent repression of social movements fighting for justice and human rights reached unimaginable proportions, involving assassinations, disappearances, and exile. Even parts of the Church, traditionally considered an ally of the powerful and the wealthy, were not spared this fate. Missionaries and Resistance in Guatemala chronicles the involvement of certain Catholic missionaries in popular and revolutionary movements. Based primarily on their own accounts, it narrates their gradual progression from conservative theological and pastoral practices to radical positions, informed by their solidarity with the poor and a theology of liberation. Their stories are situated in a wider geopolitical and ecclesial context.
Download or read book Un Reined Soul written by El Rios Paolino and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-12 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Un-Reined Soul" is a bilingual poetry collection expressing in both English and Spanish the full spectrum, from triumph to tragedy, of the modern human experience. The overlying theme of finding the inner voice that had been dormant for many years and using those emotions to fully express the depth of the human soul is one which is universal to any who have lived, loved or lost. The inspiration for the works contained in Un-Reined Soul comes quite literally from everyday life. The poet takes moments in time and expresses them in a way that can touch the hearts, minds and souls of readers, relating to specific moments in their own lives. Readers will be uplifted by expressions of love, hope and family, experiencing awakenings of self-reflection through the poets inner most thoughts. The books opening work, Unleashed is a poem that describes the awakening of a soul that once lay dormant and the new feelings and experiences that are revealed when that place is, at last, touched by the hand of inspiration. Thief reflects on how individuals come into our lives disturbing, uncovering and exposing things we never knew had always existed below the surface, ultimately making the reader wonder who was really the Thief. Reflection is a poem of self examination and introspection. At its core, it questions the juxtaposition of others perceptions of who we are to the true self that can be found in moments of inner contemplation. Liberarme a poem in Spanish that expresses the pain felt by a heart that remains imprisoned by a lost love. Expressing the beauty and pain of life is close to the heart of El Rios Paolino, who has experienced an abundance of both in her own life and has gained a newfound perspective by putting pen to paper in the creation of Un-Reined Soul. In the heart of the poet is the desire to show each reader that there is a new corner of their soul waiting to be un-reined.

Download or read book Presente written by Cristina Tzintzún and published by AK Press. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read the media coverage of the increasingly heated debate around immigration reform in the United States: two dominant narratives emerge. From Lou Dobbs to Sean Hannity, commentators on the right have crafted an image rooted in fear, demonizing undocumented immigrants as a threat to national security and raising the specter of a deliberate "browning of America." Left-leaning journalists, on the other hand, foreground victimization, emphasizing the plight of immigrants, stripping them of their agency. Neither captures the range of experiences within undocumented immigrant communities, and both fail to see immigrants as active participants in their own struggle for racial and economic justice. Presente! offers a rare perspective on the immigrant-rights movement, written by immigrant workers themselves. Including a range of essays exploring the intersection of race, class, and immigration in the United States, this anthology challenges its readers to move beyond a "legalization-only" framework and embrace a broader vision for social justice organizing embodied in the work of grassroots organizations across the country resisting state repression, cultivating solidarity, and building alternative models for progressive social change. Offered in a dual-language edition, with a foreword by Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzáles. Cristina Tzintzún is the executive director of Workers Defense Project, a Texas based workers' rights organization. Carlos Pérez de Alejo is the executive director of Cooperation Texas, an organization dedicated to the creation of sustainable jobs through the development, support, and promotion of worker-owned cooperatives. Arnulfo Manríquez is an organizer at Workers Defense Project, where he organizes immigrant construction workers to defend their labor and human rights.
