Critical Education in International Perspective presents new perspectives on critical education from Latin America, Southern Europe and Africa. While recognising the valuable work in critical education emerging from North America and the Northern hemisphere, testimony to Paulo Freire's influence there, this book sheds light on parts of the world that are not given prominence. The book highlights the complementary work of Lorenzo Milani, Amilcar Cabral, exponents of Italian feminism, Ada Gobetti, the Landless Workers Movement (MST) in Brazil, Antonio Gramsci, Gabriela Mistral and Julius Nyerere. It also focuses on a range of struggles such as education in the context of landlessness, independence, renewal and cognitive justice, social creation and against neoliberalism and decolonization. For critical scholars and educators, Mayo and Vittoria's Critical Education in International Perspective will be one of the most important texts you read. I appreciate the manner and structure that the authors use to present and explore the major global concerns of critical education. A read that is as in-depth and as informative, as it is important. It will be appreciated for its timeliness and its timelessness.
