- Summary:
- "Constructing Twenty-first Century Socialism in Latin America argues that is it time to open our horizons to the "how" of contructing pathways to 21st century socialism. The authors undertake to do so by studying traditions, practices, counter-hegemony of governments in Venezuela, critical educators in formal education settings in three countries, social movements in Brazil and Colombia, and the Colombian student movement. The book suggests pathways towards revolutionary epistemological practices and pedagogical-political projects which decolonize our hearts, minds, bodies, and spirits creating worlds beyond capitalism"-- Provided by publisher.
