On the occasion of the centennial of Paulo Freire’s birth in
September 2021 and of fifty years since the initial publication of
his seminal work, Pedagogy of the Oppressed, this book focuses on
how scholars continue to reinvent his work across geographic and
thematic contexts. Reinvention is specifically used because Freire
vehemently opposed simply repeating his work, calling on scholars
to instead meaningfully recontextualize it. The book illustrates
how without critical, contextual reinvention, teaching cannot lead
to praxis – students’ critical reflexivity about how to make a
better world and sustainable planet. The chapter authors’
explorations of past, present, and future-looking praxis, including
their own, offer foundations, histories, possibilities, challenges,
and examples of reinventing Freire’s work. It is work that
counters fatalistic teaching that reproduces and justifies
oppressions. In Pedagogy of Indignation, Freire stated that
students should be educated to “dream of constant reinvention of
the world, the dream of liberation, thus the dream of a less ugly
society, one less mean-only dream of human beings' silent
adaptation to a reality considered untouchable.” Readers will
have the opportunity to understand how reinventions of Freire’s
work continue to commit to these crucial goals. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the journal Educational
Philosophy and Theory.
