Dialectical Pedagogy Of Revolt, A: Gramsci, Vygotsky, And The Egyptian Revolution Summary

Dialectical Pedagogy Of Revolt, A: Gramsci, Vygotsky, And The Egyptian Revolution: Studies in Critical Social Sciences, Volume 73 by Brecht De Smet

In A Dialectical Pedagogy of Revolt, Brecht De Smet offers an intellectual dialogue between the political theory of Gramsci and the cultural psychology Vygotsky within the framework of the 25th January Egyptian Revolution. Their encounter affirms the enduring need for a coherent theory of the revolutionary subject in the era of global capitalism, based on a political pedagogy of subaltern hegemony, solidarity and reciprocal education.
