In A Marxist Education: Learning to Change the World, professor and
education activist Wayne Au traces both his own development as a
Marxist educator, as well as the development of Marxist educational
theory. Arguing that dialectical materialism is at the heart of
Marxist theory, Au uses dialectics to not only analyse the
relationship between capitalism and schools, but also to understand
teaching, learning, and curriculum. In the process, A Marxist
Education challenges the idea that Marxism is Eurocentric, reclaims
noted educators such as Lev Vygotsky and Paulo Freire as being
within the Marxist tradition, and integrates racial and feminist
traditions into analyses of education, consciousness, and power.
