Critical consciousness represents the analysis of inequitable
social conditions, the motivation to effect change, and the action
taken to redress perceived inequities. Scholarship and practice in
the last two decades have highlighted critical consciousness as a
key developmental competency for those experiencing marginalization
and as a pathway for navigating and resisting oppression. This
competency is more urgent than ever given the current
sociopolitical moment, in which longstanding inequity, bias,
discrimination, and competing ideologies are amplified. This volume
assembles leading scholars to address some of the field's most
urgent questions: How does critical consciousness develop? What
theories can be used to complement and enrich our understanding of
the operation of critical consciousness? How might new directions
in theory and measurement further enhance what is known about
critical consciousness? It offers cutting-edge ideas and answers to
these questions that are of critical importance to deepen our
critical consciousness theory and measurement.
