Reflections on Post Modernism and Education. Review Essay.

Greene, Maxine

Educational Policy, v7 n2 p106-11 Jun 1993

Kanpol's book "Towards a Theory and Practice of Teacher Cultural Politics: Continuing the Postmodern Debate" (Ablex, 1992) examines postmodernist thought in education. Redefining critical social theory and the notion of resistance in postmodernist terms, the author shows these ideas' relevance to common democratic struggles and resistance to the oppressive conditions of advanced capitalism.
