Comparative Education Review, v47 n3 p321-28 Aug 2003

Three books examine works of Paulo Freire and the concepts of critical pedagogy and emancipatory education as they relate to current world political situations: dominance of neoliberal politics on one hand and Brazil's election of a working-class president on the other. Freire's thinking can be a foundation for a new leftist "common sense" that opposes the Right's ideology of the market as the center of freedom. (SV)
