It is a landmark text with relevance for years to come for the productive dialogue between Marxism and education for transformational thinking and practice.
Trade Review"The encyclopaedia not only provides a thorough critique of the effects of neoliberal policies on education but also unravels a myriad of reasons for the condition of our world, which is marked by super-exploitation and intensification of labour, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. [...] This encyclopaedia illuminates a path out of the growing darkness, which threatens not only the human species but our whole planet because capitalism shapes not only people in the Global North and South but also adversely affects Nature through commodification and marketisation". Dr. Dilnaz Boga and Rohit Ranjan in CounterCurrents.org. Read the full review here.
