Publisher's Synopsis
This powerful, important, and controversial
collection pushes the limits of criticism and, in so doing, represents the most
sophisticated critical thinking being done today. Pedagogy is seen here as more
than classroom practices or instructional methods. The authors of these eleven
provocative and sometimes disturbing chapters view pedagogy as the act of producing
and disseminating knowledge in culture. From this position the writers define
all discursive practices as pedagogical, in the sense that they propose a theory
of reality.
