Education, Dialogue, and Intervention: Revisiting the Freirean Project.
Roberts, Peter
Educational Studies, v20 n3 p307-27 1994
Relates that, in the past two decades, Paulo Friere's philosophy has gained adherents in Brazil and several other nations. Reviews Friere's methods of adult literacy education and identifies serious criticisms. Argues that, while the Freirean system is nondialogical and impositional, his literacy efforts were ultimately worthwhile. (CFR)
