«La (des)educación» is Noam Chomsky's essay on education and social criticism, published by Booket in paperback (240 pages, in Spanish).
Chomsky argues that school does not transmit democratic values but a model of training that impoverishes teachers' intellectual work and limits students' critical thinking. Against this domesticating teaching, he champions educators committed to social justice and democracy.
The work is volume 1 of the Biblioteca de Bolsillo collection. It was originally published in English as On MisEducation, in 2000.
Intended for educators, pedagogy students, and readers of social criticism interested in Chomsky's work.
Avram Noam Chomsky is an American intellectual, philosopher, linguist, political activist, and social critic. Sometimes called "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Among the most cited living authors, Chomsky has written more than 150 books on topics such as linguistics, war, and politics. In addition to his work in linguistics, since the 1960s, Chomsky has been an influential voice on the American Left as a consistent critic of the foreign policy of the United States, contemporary capitalism, and corporatocracy.
