Pedagogy of Hope: Reliving Pedagogy of the Oppressed

“Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of Hope, first published in 1992, was written “in rage and love”, passionate in its denunciation of social wrongs and in its assertion of the power of education to release the truth. The book works at both inspirational and practical levels, Freire believing that hope must be secured in practice, in action. In his own life, Freire embodied this integration of love and need for securing social change. His thinking and commitment to the best in humanity informed his engagement in the world. Pedagogy of Hope illuminates Freire’s earlier publications including Pedagogy of the Oppressed (1968) which with sales of over one million copies has had extraordinary impact throughout the world in its analysis of socially and personally transformative education.” ―Lincoln Green in LeftCentral

“I would recommend Pedagogy of Hope: Reliving Pedagogy of the Oppressed for everyone who, like myself, believes we can achieve a socially just future built collectively.” ―Educational Review
