This book takes the discourse of cooperative learning to new territories. Susan E. Roche, Marty Dewees, and company take a critically reflective look at educational and global human rights philosophy, as well as social work's commitment to social justice. In liberatory teaching and learning, social work educators engage the mechanisms of privilege, power, and authority that inhabit the academic world no less than the practice world. The authors place social work education within a global framework and develop their postmodern educational philosophy around a set of five liberatory principles. These principles question the hierarchies and status-based roles and identities found in social work classrooms and field practica.BSW, MSW, and doctoral educators and students will find helpful case examples illustrating the principles at work. In the final section, the authors discuss the challenges of liberatory education as well as strategies to address them.Council on Social Work Education  We are a nonprofit national association representing individual members and graduate and undergraduate programs of professional social work education.
