"The Power of Critical Theory" is Brookfield's attempt to put the
"critical" back into critical thinking by emphasizing that it is an
inherently political process. The book presents powerful arguments
for the importance of critical theory in fostering the kind of
learning that leads to a truly democratic society, and it explores
a number of tasks for adult learners including learning to
challenge ideology, contest hegemony, unmask power, overcome
alienation, learn liberation, reclaim reason, and practice
democracy.
