{"product_id":"adult-education-at-the-crossroads-matthias-finger-9781856497510","title":"Adult Education at the Crossroads: Learning Our Way Out","description":"This assessment the state of adult education--its traditions, current problems, and possible futures--is written from a social action perspective. The authors demonstrate how adult education's commitment to deliver social change ran into difficulties in the 1980s and 1990s. The book identifies four possible scenarios for the future and on this basis defines the challenges confronting an adult education still committed to social change. The authors outline the key features of an adult education that can contribute to \"learning our way out of\" the dead end of relentless industrial development, mounting inequality, mass immiseration, and alienation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthias Finger,Jose Manuel Asun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1856497518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781856497510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.54h x 5.60w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2001 pg. 564","brand":"Matthias Finger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47474253398271,"sku":"9781856497510","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af20f08a-3579-481a-8cca-f94185c7a5b5.jpg?v=1762315665","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adult-education-at-the-crossroads-matthias-finger-9781856497510","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
