From Dayton, Ohio, to Barcelona, Spain, this collection of essays from the Harvard Educational Review carries readers to places where people have first imagined—and then organized—their own educational responses to dehumanizing practices and conditions. Within a context of continued calls for education “reform,” Humanizing Education: Critical Alternatives to Reform seeks to inspire a collective imagination for radical alternatives. The contributors offer historic examples of hopeful and humanizing educational spaces, practices, and movements that embody a spirit of hope and change.
