On Paulo Freire's Philosophy of Praxis and the Foundations of the Liberation Education.
Glass, Ronald David
Educational Researcher, v30 n2 p15-25 Mar 2001
Examines the philosophical foundations of Freire's view of liberation education, outlining a more consistent historicist interpretation that retains the liberating power of modernism and its critique of dehumanization. Recognizes the malleability and contradictions of identity, embraces epistemic uncertainties and varieties of reason in knowledge, and respects the plural conceptions of the good that can shape moral and political life.
