In "Constructing Twenty-First Century Socialism: The Role of
Radical Education," Motta and Cole explore the role of the politics
of knowledge and pedagogy in the reinvention of socialism for the
twenty-first century. Through a critical analysis of Brazil,
Colombia and Venezuela they deconstruct the mechanisms of
neoliberal control as an epistemological project of monologue,
closure, and violence against all 'others'. The authors develop an
affirmative engagement with the traditions, practices, and politics
which seek to challenge this closure through the policies of the
counter-hegemonic government of Venezuela, the struggles of social
movements in Brazil and Colombia, and the daily resistance of
critical educators working in formal educational settings in all
three countries. This mapping and analysis not only contribute to
struggles for alternatives to capitalism in Latin America, but are
translatable to other contexts. The book theorizes that with the
exhaustion of neoliberalism, it is time to pedagogize the political
and politicize the pedagogical in order to create worlds beyond
capitalism.
