{"product_id":"towards-a-theory-and-practice-barry-kanpol-9780893918224","title":"Towards a Theory and Practice of Teacher Cultural Politics: Continuing the Postmodern Debate","description":". . . In a series of insightful excursions through the institutional culture of schools and classrooms Kanpol provides us with a rich tapestry of experiences within which are found not only conformity, coercion, and alienation, but also hope, dignity, and an empowering pedagogy of the other. Most significantly, the practices that value cultural differences and that enhance the voice of those historically silenced and demeaned emerge out of the egalitarian commitments and struggles of teachers. . . . .In Kanpol's clear but simple formulation of similarity within difference' there is the vision of human relationships which honor cultural, linguistic, and historical distinctiveness, but which insist on the continuing vitality and viability of a common human vision and on the necessity of finding the common ground of political struggle. . . . - \u003ci\u003eSvi Shapiro, From the Foreword\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barry Kanpol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0893918229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780893918224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d","brand":"Barry Kanpol","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153132073215,"sku":"9780893918224","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b18addd-b499-4610-8e50-26d2c65985f4.jpg?v=1770781502","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/towards-a-theory-and-practice-barry-kanpol-9780893918224","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
