Adult Education and Socialist Pedagogy (Routledge Library Editions: Adult Education)

Originally published in 1986, this book was written at a time of increasing pressure on traditional areas of secondary and higher education and changing employment patterns - a situation which still exists today. Then, as now, there is increased awareness that the continuing education of adults has a vital role to play in our society. This volume develops a socialist pedagogy within adult education, using a Marxist theoretical framework. It proposes socialism as the radical form of change necessary to remove obstacles to greater social justice and educational equality and studies the implications of this political position for adult education.

The Political Economy of Adult Education and Development (Global Perspectives on Adult Education and Training)

Frank Youngman argues that adult educators need to have an understanding of the various different theories of development, and how different development strategies and biases impact on their own work. The purpose of his book is to provide a theory of applied political economy to explain the interface between society and adult education in developing countries. He introduces adult educators to the main competing theories of development--the modernization, dependency, neo-liberal and various populist approaches. He then demonstrates the power of his own analytical approach by examining specific issues affecting adult education.
