Reflections on Knowledge, Learning and Social Movements
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-88842-8 (ISBN)
Reflections on Knowledge, Learning and Social Movements aims to advance the understanding of relationships between learning, knowledge production, history and social change. In four sections, this unique collection explores:
• Engagement with activist/movement archives
• Learning and teaching militant histories
• Lessons from liberatory and anti-imperialist struggles
• Learning from student, youth and education struggles
Six chapters foreground insights from the breadth and diversity of South Africa’s rich progressive social movements; while others explore connections between ideas and practices of historical and contemporary struggles in other parts of the world including Argentina, Iran, Britain, Palestine, and the US.
Besides its great relevance to scholars and students of Education, Sociology, and History, this innovative title will be of particular interest to adult educators, labour educators, archivists, community workers and others concerned with education for social change.
