In this book Henry A. Giroux passionately argues that education and
critical pedagogy are needed now more than ever to combat
injustices in our society caused by fake news, toxic masculinity,
racism, consumerism and white nationalism. At the heart of the book
is the idea that pedagogy has the power to create narratives of
desire, values, identity, and agency at time when these narratives
are being manipulated to promote right wing populism and emerging
global fascist politics. The book expands on the notion of the
plague as not only a medical crisis but also a crisis of politics,
ethics, education, and democracy itself. The chapters cover a range
topics beginning with historical perspectives on fascism and moving
on to issues of social atomization, depoliticization, neoliberal
pedagogy, the scourge of staggering inequality, populism, and
pandemic pedagogy. The book concludes with a call for educators to
make education central to politics, develop a discourse of critique
and possibility, reclaim the vision of a radical democracy, and
embrace their role as powerful agents of change.
