Praise
“This is an excellent book that deals with important issues through the lens of anarchist theories and practices of education… The book tackles a number of issues that are relevant to anybody who is trying to come to terms with the philosophy of education.” —Higher Education Review
“(Judith Sussia) lucidly defines and analyzes important questions about human nature, social and political values, the basic core beliefs in anarchist philosophies, and their educational ideas. Suissa is exceedingly conversant with key theorists such as Mikhail Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, Noam Chomsky, Paul Goodman, Daniel Guerin, and Colin Ward, and she is especially adept at pointing out distinctions between anarchism and libertarianism.” —J.L.
