Pedagogy Of The Oppressed by Paulo Freire

This book is a seminal work in the field of critical pedagogy that explores the complex relationship between the oppressor and the oppressed in educational contexts. The author argues that traditional pedagogical methods perpetuate existing hierarchies and suggests a new approach called "problem-posing education," which emphasizes dialogue and critical thinking to empower learners to question and challenge oppressive systems. The text is both a critique of the way education is often used as a tool of domination and a guide for how it can instead be transformed into a practice of freedom, helping individuals to achieve self-realization and societal change.
