The disorienting dilemma versus the event
We live in appalling times, in which it is almost impossible to remain hopeful; for radical adult educators, it is difficult to know what we should do in response. In this article, I draw on two theorists for possible inspiration. Jack Mezirow’s perspective transformation theory is one of the most widely used of all adult learning theories, but also continues to be critiqued as a theory of social change. Alain Badiou’s theory of the event has not…
Paulo Freire and Emancipatory Praxis in Africa
There has been a growing resurgence of interest in Paulo Freire in recent times. In much of this work, there has been a tendency to focus on him as a pedagogue rather than as an emancipatory political thinker; his involvement in and influence on liberation struggles in Africa, in particular, have received little attention. This is concerning, given that his involvement spanned a period of about two decades and came at a pivotal moment in both the…
I’m On My Own, I Need Support”
Findings are novel in the context of South Western Sydney, Australia. The study design, methods employed, and lessons learned can be adapted internationally for future needs assessments to inform policy, strategies, and integrated aged care service delivery
Jenny Lind. Of Echoes and Traces
In September 1850, the celebrated soprano Jenny Lind, better known as the Swedish Nightingale, arrived in the United States for what would be her last major musical tour. Her wild success in the young nation was built upon an advertising campaign by Phineas Taylor Barnum that leveraged her talent and various aspects of her identity. In this article, we consider the music written for Lind and how the sound she produced impacted her audiences, as w…

‘Political literacy’ in South Africa
Research over the last few decades has supported the contention that ‘there are different literacy practices in different domains of social life ....[and] these change over time’_x000D_ (Hamilton, Tett, & Crowther, 2012, p.3). In this article, we use ‘political literacy’, as conceived by Paulo Freire, as a theoretical lens through which to consider non-formal education in the changing context of South Africa. After considering the influence of Fr…
Environmental Justice, Popular Struggle and Community Development
Community development takes place in contested spaces in which the interests of people living, working and surviving in communities come up against the interests of powerful groups and classes in the structures of exploitation, colonisation and neoliberalism. Where community development practices respond to issues of environmental concerns, this brings an additional dimension as ‘the environment’ becomes another arena for contestation. This book …
Environmental Justice, Popular Struggle and Community Development
Food for Thought
Currently the Academy operates primarily as a space that helps to create and cement neoliberal hegemony in the Gramscian sense. However, since hegemony is never complete, universities are a site of struggle and the opportunity exists to engage in a “war of position” within them. This must necessarily involve allowing space for counter-hegemonic discourses to emerge through critical reflection on “common sense” discourses, as well as the deliberat…
Picturing Reality
This article considers research into barriers to learning (including HIV/AIDS) in a small, rural town in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. A variety of qualitative participatory research methods were used, including photovoice, a method in which research participants take photographs and then decode these together with the researchers. Rich, thick data was obtained using photovoice, and the researchers found this method particularly useful for dealing…
Finding Voice
This study examined the efficacy of photovoice as a research technique to explore the lives of children and families living in the context of HIV and AIDS. Participants were volunteers at a Day Care and Support Centre (n=18), and members of a community support group consisting of People Living with AIDS (n=5). The findings revealed that the photovoice method is particularly useful for dealing with the ‘unspoken’ lived experience of children and f…
