- Title
Reflections on love and revolution.
- Authors
MCLAREN, PETER
- Abstract
This essay constitutes a personal reflection by Peter McLaren about the significance of Paulo Freire's work today, especially during the global crisis of capitalism. The author situates the love that animated the relationship between Paulo and Nita within the context of a wider love for humanity and their joint quest to create an educative context in which the oppressed can liberate themselves from forms of oppression. The author recounts his early exchange with Paulo and reflects upon the socialist project that he believes served as a foundation for Paulo's pedagogy of liberation.
