The Politics and Economics of Globalization and Social Change in Radical Adult Education: A Critical Review of Recent Literature
Holst, John D.
Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, v5 n1 May 2007
This article reviews the literature in radical adult education. The author addresses areas within radical adult education that he believes do not necessarily fit easily within the typology and that more importantly are pointing toward new emerging social agents and the possibilities for social change beyond what the author argues are limitations of both civil societarian and prevailing Marxist-oriented perspectives in the field. Anticipating this discussion, specifically, the author argues that feminist perspectives of an integrative or structural and transformative nature and emerging struggles in the Americas are providing pathways beyond the limitations inherent in the two dominant perspectives on globalization within radical adult education.
