| Abstract: | Paulo Reglus Neves Freire (1921–1997) is surely one of the most cited and iconic figures in contemporary literature on education. In fact, his impact has been large enough to affect thinking in such areas as social work, communications, nursing, community development, theology, philosophy, and sociology. To provide one example, a recent text advocating a critical approach to community development (Ledwith, 2005) considers Freire’s pedagogical and political philosophy as central to the strategy being outlined. |
