Abstract
Peter McLaren and Nathalia Jaramillo's Pedagogy and Praxis in the Age of Empire (PPAE) best collects their founding theoretical work on the post-9/11, emergent international anti-capitalist/imperialist movement that reflects an active example of revolutionary critical pedagogy. Those familiar with McLaren's recent material on the subject in books such as Teaching Against Global Capitalism and the New Imperialism (with Ramin Farahmandpur, 2004) Capitalists & Conquerors (2005), Red Seminars (with Compeñeras y Compeñeros, 2005), and Rage & Hope: Interviews with Peter McLaren on War, Imperialism and Critical Pedagogy (2006), will find in this latest text a further volley of unflinching and searing essays that seek to unapologetically smash like a hammer into the hateful workings of power syndicates such as the Bush cabal, unprovoked American militarism, corporate media, privatized schooling and transnational capitalist class ventures.
