Situating contemporary critical praxis at the intersection of the social, the political, and the rhetorical, this book is a provocative inquiry into the teaching philosophies of Platos Socrates and Paulo Freire that has profound implications for contemporary education. Brown not only sheds new light on the surprising and significant points of intersection between ancient rhetoric and radical praxis as embodied in the teaching philosophies of Socrates and Freire, using the philosophy of each to illumine the teaching of the other, but uses this analysis to lead contemporary education in a bold new direction, articulating a vision for a neohumanist pragmatism. The book draws on the postFreudian theories of Jacques Derrida, Peter Brooks, and Otto Rank, as well as on the neopragmatism of Cornell West to craft a new radical pedagogy configured to the realities of 'post flashcrash' America. In the process, it discovers a space for a much broader application of Freires teaching philosophy than previous works, moving beyond a narrow focus on 'liberatory' pedagogy or 'teaching resistance,' toward a neohumanist pragmatism emphasizing interactive learning, problemposing analysis, and civic engagement. Brown crafts a socialepistemic praxis that fuses the pedagogies of Freire and Socrates, joining the analytical, the ethical, and the political as part of an inquiry and intervention into the real, the good, and the possible that poses problematic aspects of contemporary reality in a search for the program content of a Pedagogy of Social Change.
