Synopsis: Demonstrating the continued relevance of Marcuse’s work, Herbert Marcuse as Social Justice Educator details how his teachings remain a countervailing force to the conventional wisdom in intellectual and political matters today.By drawing on Marcuse’s critical analysis of the political economy, a profound concern for environmental issues, and an explicit critique of educational philosophy, this book illuminates not only the content and contours of Marcuse’s work but its importance for developing critical social scientific thinking and theoretical insight into contemporary issues such as genocide and ecocide, fascism and democratic crises, political economy and social inequality, and the role of culture and media in forming compliant consumer-citizens.From Charles Reitz, a prominent leader in Marcuse studies, this book will be an essential guide for instructors, students, and learners in sociology, social theory, political science, and environmental studies.
