The Practice of Equality : Jacques Ranciere and Critical Pedagogy Paperback / softback
Edited by Stephen Cowden, David Ridley
Part of the New Disciplinary Perspectives on Education series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book is the first to focus specifically on the highly original contribution to the field of Critical Pedagogy made by the sometimes «irritable» French philosopher Jacques Rancière.
The book represents a significant addition to the growing body of work on Rancière as well as to the field of Critical Pedagogy.
While introducing and contextualising Rancière for those unfamiliar with him, the book also develops an understanding of the singularity of his conception of pedagogy for those already acquainted with his work.
Central to the book is Rancière’s vision of education as a «practice of equality» – a method grounded in an assumption of intellectual equality between students and teachers.
Throughout the chapters of the book, the contemporary relevance of this vision is drawn out for educators in schools and universities, adult and popular educators, as well as for political activists.
For anyone and everyone with an interest in teaching and learning, this book contains vital insights for the survival and development of education as a democratic, critical and emancipatory project.
