Lorenzo Milani, The School of Barbiana and the Struggle for Social Justice

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the influential work of Lorenzo Milani, this book critically examines his educational philosophies developed in two Tuscan locations, particularly through the lens of the School of Barbiana. It explores themes such as education's role in class politics, imperialism, and militarization, alongside concepts like peer tutoring and critical media literacy. By comparing Milani's ideas with those of other educators, the text highlights the foundations of a social justice-oriented pedagogy, encapsulated in the School's motto, "I care."
