Pedagogy of the Oppressed
`The foremost work on the key democratic task: helping people to identify and challenge the sources of their oppression … a transformative text` George Monbiot, GuardianArguing that `education is freedom`, Paulo Freire`s radical international classic contends that traditional teaching styles keep the poor powerless by treating them as passive, silent recipients of knowledge.
