Pedagogy of the Heart represents some of the last writings by Paulo Freire.
Translated by Donaldo Macedo and Alexandre Oliveira..
The text includes substantive notes by Ana Maria Araújo Freire, a foreword by Martin Carnoy, a preface by Ladislau Dowbor, as well as a substantive new introduction by Antonia Darder, who holds the Leavey Presidential Endowed Chair in Ethics and Moral Leadership in the School of Education at Loyola Marymount University, USA.
Freire reveals himself as a radical reformer whose lifelong commitment to the vulnerable, the illiterate and the marginalised has had a profound impact on society and education today.
For those coming to Freire for the first time, the book will open up new ways of looking at the interrelations of education and political struggle.
For those who have read Freire\'s other works the book includes new discussions of familiar subjects including community, neoliberalism, faith, hope, the oppressed, and exile.
In this work, perhaps more so than any other, Freire presents a coherent set of principles for education and politics.
