Nafziger, R. Nanre; Strong, Krystal; Tarlau, Rebecca – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2023
Education is a central aspect of social movements' ability to build individual and collective participation in political struggle.

Provost, Mickaëlle – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2021
The aim of this paper is to understand "whiteness" as a political category which organizes ordinary experience.

Piotrowski, Marcelina; Ruitenberg, Claudia – Critical Studies in Education, 2016
The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between news media and political education within consumer society.

Giroux, Henry A. – Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies, 2022
The United States is at a turning point in its history. Insurrection has become a dominant motif describing a country torn between the promises and ideals of democracy and an emergent authoritarianism that trades in lies, lawlessness, and a rebranded fascist politics. In this article, I analyze the contrasting visions, politics, and role of…

Halbert-Brooks, Ann E. – ProQuest LLC, 2017
My dissertation examines the role of women in the Cuban Revolution through the lens of the 1961 Literacy Campaign. Using archival sources, print media, oral histories, and other primary source accounts, I argue that the Campaign was a key formative period for the nascent revolutionary state and for the 250,000 teachers who worked in it. Beginning…

This autoethnagraphic article argues that in the study of political education, especially learning through social movement activities, the knowledge produced by the research will be of greater social use if researchers position themselves as 'cognitive activists'.

Leighton, Ralph – Education, Citizenship and Social Justice, 2023
All education is political; the radical approach to Citizenship Education promotes social justice and critical active participation. In synthesizing a pedagogy of discomfort and the principles of subversive teaching, this is predicated on the notion that authority should be accountable, that people should be able and enabled to take decision…

Elayassa, Wajih – McGill Journal of Education, 2013
Due to the political context and the restrictions placed on general freedoms and trade union activities, workers' education in Palestine remained informal and largely reliant on oral memory until the early 1990s. For decades, it was an integral part of political education. Workers' education only became a stand-alone field after the establishment…
