Drawing on the ideas of Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault, this
book extends the theoretical understanding of public pedagogy and
brings into sharp focus the elements that constitute the public
realm; the site of public pedagogy. Karen Charman and Mary Dixon
offer a new theorisation of the public, a term at the heart of
debate in the field, heightened in this post-truth era by the
COVID-19 pandemic, the rise of fake news and the technological
reconfigurations of public life. The new theorization addresses the
‘public’, ‘pedagogy’ and their confluence in ‘public
pedagogy’. The book explores a deep engagement with the
architecture and dynamics of pedagogy and argues for the
positioning of pedagogy with the public. The authors contribute to
a theorisation that re-considers the individual and their capacity
for agency within the public realm. The book presents knowledge and
pedagogical encounters as key elements of public pedagogy and most
significantly, the educative agent as a means of critically
rethinking social life and learning in public spaces. Presenting an
innovative theoretical approach, this book will be of interest to
academics in the fields of public and critical pedagogy and
postgraduate students in education, cultural studies and politics.
