Educational alternatives in Latin America: new modes of counter-hegemonic learning

Abstract

This book explores diverse contemporary paradigms of educational praxis and learning in Latin America, both non-formal and formal. Each contributor, from different geographical locations, focuses on theoretical and empirical positions, discusses the broader theme of how in times of historical ruptures, political reconstructions and epistemic formations, the production of paradigms rooted in 'other' logics, cosmologies and realities may renegotiate and redefine concepts of education, learning and knowledge.
