The Dialectic of Freedom / Maxine Greene

No review available on this record. Title : The Dialectic of Freedom : John Dewey Lecture Series Material Type: printed text Authors: Maxine Greene, Author Publisher: New York : Teachers College Press Publication Date: 1988 Pagination: 152 p. Size: 22 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-8077-2897-0 General note: Includes bibliographical index (p. 145-151) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Education History Liberty Philosophy Class number: 370 Abstract: In The Dialectic of Freedom, Maxine Greene argues that freedom must be achieved through continuing resistance to the forces that limit, condition, determine, and―too frequently―oppress.Examining the interrelationship between freedom, possibility, and imagination in American education, Greene taps the fields of philosophy, history, educational theory, and literature in order to discuss the many struggles that have characterized Americans’ quests for freedom in the midst of what is conceived to be a free society. Accounts of the lives of women, immigrants, and minority groups highlight the ways in which Americans have gone in search of openings in their lived situations, learned to look at things as if they could be otherwise, and taken action on what they found. Greene presents a unique overview of American concepts and images of freedom from Jefferson’s time to the present. She examines the ways in which the disenfranchised have historically understood and acted on their freedom―or lack of it―in dealing with perceived and real obstacles to expression and empowerment. Strong emphasis is placed on the focal role of the arts and art experience in releasing human imagination and enabling the young to reach toward their vision of the possible.

Parker, Author Publisher: New York : Teachers College Press Publication Date: 2002 Series: Multicultural Education Series Pagination: 191 p. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-8077-4272-3 General note: Includes bibliographical references (p. [167]-181) Includes index (p. 183-191) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Citizenship - Study and teaching Education - Aims and objectives Class number: 370.11 Abstract: In Teaching Democracy, Walter Parker makes a unique and thoughtful contribution to the hot debate between proponents of multicultural education and those who favor a cultural literacy approach. Parker conclusively demonstrates that educating for democratic citizenship in a multicultural society includes a fundamental respect for diversity. This scholarly yet accessible work: - Bridges the widening gap between multicultural education and civic education. - Provides powerful teaching strategies that educators can use to draw children creatively and productively into a way of life that protects and nurtures cultural pluralism and racial equity. - Explains the unity–diversity confusion that is found in popular media as well as in multicultural- and citizenship-education initiatives. - Defines deliberative discussion and explores its promise as the centerpiece of democratic education in schools, both elementary and secondary.
