Resumo

An in-depth examination of political economy, especially the social dynamics of economic inequality, is a vital part of radical pedagogy. This essay explicates Herbert Marcuse’s critique of the global political economy, U.S. militarism, and his educational philosophy. Marcuse's critical pedagogy stresses that educators at every level face the necessity of elaborating the theory and practice for a free world order today: one of racial equality, women’s equality, the liberation of labor, the restoration of nature, leisure, abundance, and peace.
