Democracy And Education Reconsidered Dewey After One Hundred Years

Democracy and Education Reconsidered highlights the continued relevance of John Deweyâs Democracy and Education while also examining the need to reconstruct and re-contextualize Deweyâs educational philosophy for our time. The authors propose ways of revising Deweyâs thought in light of the challenges facing contemporary education and society, and address other themes not touched upon heavily in Deweyâs work, such as racism, feminism, post-industrial capitalism, and liquid modernity. As a final component, the authors integrate Deweyâs philosophy with more recent trends in scholarship, including pragmatism, post-structuralism, and the works of other key philosophers and scholars.
