Bourgeois Ideology and Education

Focusing on ways that teachers can overcome pervasive stereotypes about poverty and social status on the classroom, Snow identifies interdisciplinary techniques to create encounters and experiences that are more subtly subversive.

This book identifies the origins and central assertions of bourgeois ideology as well as the reasons for their persuasive power, and offers pedagogical tools to weaken them. The author suggests techniques for use in the classroom, the community and the imagination that subvert negative stereotypes about poor people and individualist explanations for socio-economic status. Written from an ecumenical socialist perspective combining Marxist, neo-Marxist, and anarchist perspectives, this book utilizes a broad interdisciplinary scope, encompassing political theory, religion, political psychology, and literature.
