The authors aim to deconstruct, re-imagine, and plan for a more meaningful, vibrant, and socially just democracy that challenges the normative, representative, and hegemonic democracy that currently dominates formal relations, institutions, processes, and education. The book presents a vision for transformative education and EfD, seeking to cultivate, stimulate, and support political and media literacy, critical engagement, and a re-conceptualization of what education is and how it can address entrenched, systemic, and institutional problems that plague society. Based on over a decade of empirical research in various contexts and jurisdictions, the authors strive to link teaching and learning with agency, solidarity, action, and transformative change within the conceptual framework of a critically engaged EfD. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 436g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 x 211 x 18 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781975501433                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul R.
