Education, Childhood and Anarchism: Talking Colin Ward de Catherine Burke

Education, Childhood and Anarchism: Talking Colin Ward

Editat de Catherine Burke, Ken Jones
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 mar 2016
As one of Britain's most original thinkers and writers Colin Ward wrote extensively about positive and practical examples from the past and present of the anarchist spirit or the 'social principle' in everyday life. This volume is the first scholarly work dedicated to examining the significance of his distinctive and highly relevant contributions to the areas of education, children and the environment.
In each chapter, international contributors from academic and activist backgrounds offer cross-disciplinary and critical perspectives on Ward's work and its relevance to contemporary debates. The book is divided into four key areas:
  • The Sand Box of the City
  • Adventures in Education
  • Reflections on Practice
  • Mobilisations.
This book will appeal to academics and professionals interested in the condition of childhood and youth today. It will prove useful for postgraduates and professionals undertaking further professional development, and is relevant to anyone studying, researching or working in fields relating to children, education and the environment not just in the UK but beyond.

Recenzii

"There has been much written on the late and great Colin Ward in the last decade. This finely crafted edited volume is one of the few attempts to focus on his interest in education, childhood and anarchism, in some ways the key to his political vision... This book shows that another city and countryside for youth and those young at heart like Colin Ward are possible." - Carl Levy, Anarchist Studies

Descriere

Referred to as 'one of Britain's most original thinkers and writers' (B. Tonkin in Independent 19.2.2010) and 'Britain's most famous anarchist', Colin Ward wrote extensively about positive and practical examples from the past and present of the anarchist spirit or the 'social principle' in everyday life. This book is the first scholarly work dedicated to examining the significance of his distinctive and highly relevant contributions to the areas of education, children and environment.
