In this book, Bergeron demonstrates the negative emotional and
pedagogical repercussions that result from American educators'
embrace of self-esteem and the dogma surrounding its acceptance.
Critically interpreting the meaning of self-esteem in education, he
challenges "common sense" assumptions surrounding this notion and
questions the historical, political, philosophical, and pedagogical
forces that have shaped this psychological construct in education.
Interrogating the pedagogical practices linked to student
empowerment, self-determination, and social agency in the
classroom, Bergeron discusses the ways in which the promise of
self-esteem has backfired, particularly for marginalized and
impoverished students.
