Reviews for Antonio Gramsci: A Pedagogy to Change the World
The volume is definitely about education/pedagogy and hegemony and mirrors much of the work of Gramsci, whose overall political project was an educational one. ... I wholeheartedly recommend this book to adult educators and all those interested in critical education. (Mervin Chisholm, Adult Education Quarterly, November 01, 2018)
