Recenzii
Student Engagement, Higher Education, and Social Justice is a tour de force. It is brilliant in its analysis of the meaning and relevance of student engagement as part of a larger project of empowerment, social justice, and social responsibility. The book is a welcome relief in light of the endless books that have depoliticized the concept and erased its critical theoretical foundations. Morrison and Bramley’s book is essential reading in a time of increasing attacks on education and social justice. It is informative, accessible, lyrical and brilliant in its analysis for addressing education as a vital and critical project. This book is a must reading for educators, parents, students, and others attempting to connect education with the imperatives of pedagogy, social justice, and democracy.'
Henry A. Giroux, McMaster University Professor for Scholarship in the Public Interest, The Paulo Freire Distinguished Scholar in Critical Pedagogy, McMaster University
This is the book I wish I’d written! A compelling reframing of student engagement for social justice, this incisively argued text harvests the abundant riches of critical theory with such finesse that it serves both as the "go to" source for understanding the topic of student engagement in its full complexity, and as a model of deploying theory critically and intelligently to enhance analysis of any topic.
Vicki Trowler, University of Huddersfield, United Kingdom.
'Drawing on Habermas, Honneth, Freire, Giroux, Foucault, and Gramsci, the authors Bramley and Morrison pose the questions ‘student engagement in what, for what and for whom?’. Their answer is in the resistance to neoliberalism in Higher Education and beyond in the pursuit of social justice. Neoliberalism, they quite rightly argue, is unfit for HE. Overcoming it requires a long-term commitment involving critical pedagogy, activism, solidarity, resistance, collectivity and ‘conscientization’ in the ongoing struggle for a better world. In these desperate times of endless austerity in the UK, and creeping fascism, not least in the United States, their book fosters an optimism of the will to challenge the many obstacles we face today.'
