Description

Marxism and Educational Theory: Origins and Issues is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between Marxist theory and educational practice. This book addresses key theoretical issues such as utopian socialism, poststructuralism, and globalisation, and offers practical suggestions for connecting these ideas with everyday school life. The author, Mike Cole, examines the challenges of building a socialist world through education, including the impact of neo-liberalism and environmental destruction. With a specially written Foreword by Peter McLaren, this book provides a compelling and informative contribution to the debate on educational theory and its role in shaping a more equitable future. Suitable for academics and students interested in educational theory, sociology, politics, philosophy, and critical theory, Marxism and Educational Theory: Origins and Issues offers valuable insights into the complex relationships between education, society, and politics.
