This book sheds light on the work of one of the 20th century's
foremost critical educators, the Italian Lorenzo Milani
(1923-1967), on the 90th anniversary of his birth. It provides an
exposition and critical analysis of the ideas contained in his
writings, ideas that emerged from his experiences in two Tuscan
localities. The work of Milani and the School of Barbiana that he
directed provide signposts for a critically and sociologically
engaged pedagogy. Important themes include education and class
politics; education and imperialism; education and the culture of
militarization; the collective dimensions of learning and writing;
peer tutoring; critical media literacy; and reading history against
the grain. These ideas are analyzed with reference to similar and
contrasting ideas by other international educators, scholars and
thinkers. As the book argues, Milani's oeuvre contains important
ingredients for a social justice-oriented critical pedagogy. The
spirit for this pedagogical approach is captured in the School of
Barbiana's motto 'I care.'
