Popular Education and Pedagogies of Possibility
From the Carnation Revolution to Popular Education Today
Series: - Research on the Education and Learning of Adults, Volume: 14
Volume Editor:
To help understand the relationship between Popular Education in the Carnation Revolution in Portugal in 1974 and contemporary popular movements embracing creative forms of protest for human flourishing and ecological justice, twenty-nine leading adult education researchers consider the significance of pedagogies of possibility over fifty years in changing contexts and across three continents. After looking back over experiences of radical popular learning and forward across experiments with new knowledge construction and creative new pedagogies for social change, their unanimous answer is that the narrative of popular education must commit to that which is yet to be imagined and move forward.
Rob Evans, EdD, formerly Lecturer at Magdeburg University, has worked in adult, further and higher education in Italy, Egypt and Germany. He is an independent biography researcher and has published chapters, articles and edited books, including Remaking Communities and Learning (Brill, 2022)
This book is especially relevant for students and researchers of adult and popular education, feminists, NGOs and community movements fighting for diversity, social and ecological justice, and everyone advocating well-living, will find arguments in this book.
