This volume features the works of scholar-practitioners who embrace
critical pedagogy and critical research as praxis in qualitative
research about education. The authors take an explicit stance
toward social justice through education, and they use critical
research as a vehicle toward that end. The chapters critically
engage with topics such as researcher role and position in critical
research; collaborative research models with teachers and students;
exploring visual epistemology in schools and with students;
critical science education and cosmopolitanism; and developing
praxis within teacher preparation courses and teacher research.
Contributors push the boundaries of scholarship by presenting
nuanced theoretical discussions or critical and timely educational
issues via innovative forms of representation (i.e., fiction,
narratives, dialogues, rich descriptions, and visuals). This book
was originally published as a special issue of the International
Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education.

This is the first book to explicitly link healing and wellness
practices with critical pedagogy. Bringing together scholars from
Brazil, Canada, Malta and the USA, the chapters combine critical
pedagogy and social justice education to reorient the conversation
around wellness in teaching and learning. Working against white
Eurocentric narratives of wellness in schools which focus on the
symptoms, not the causes, of society's sickness, the authors argues
for a "soul revival" of education which tackles, head on, the
causes of dis-ease in society, from institutional racism,
colonialism, xenophobia and patriarchy. The contributors provide
fresh perspectives that address short-term goals of wellness
alongside long-term goals of healing in schools and society by
attending to underlying causes of social sickness. The chapters
bridge theory and practice, bringing diverse historical and
contemporary philosophical discussions around wellness into contact
with concrete examples of the interconnections between wellness,
education, and social justice. Examples of topics covered include:
Buddhist practices for healing, Black liberation theology, hip hop
pedagogy, anxiety and vulnerability, art therapy and story-telling.

Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy has had a profound influence on
contemporary progressive educators around the globe as they
endeavor to rethink education for liberation and the creation of
more humane global society. For Freire, maintaining a sense of
historicity, that is, the origins from which our thinking and
practice emerges, is essential to understanding and practicing
education as a means for liberation. Too often, however, critical
pedagogy is presented as a monolithic philosophy, and the
historical and intellectual roots of critical pedagogy are
submerged. Through a compilation of essays written by leading and
emerging scholars of critical pedagogy, this text brings history
into the present and keeps Paulo's intellectual roots alive in all
of us as we develop our praxis today.
