Opis

Mike Neary was a renowned critical educator, Professor of Sociology at the University of Lincoln, and a founding member of the Social Science Centre, Lincoln. He died in January 2023, and in the months prior to his death, the editors of this book met with Mike and, with his guidance, worked with him on a collection of his writings. Mike was once asked why he wrote and he responded, «I write for the future» This book gathers some of his key writings to keep alive the critical legacy which Mike's life and work embodied. It contains a body of work written by Mike on his own, with his close collaborators, as well as contributions written about him. The work gathered here in this book attests to Mike's lifelong critical engagement with the work of Karl Marx, and as his work shows, this is an engagement on terms which are uniquely his own, reflecting Mike's unique vision, his deep egalitarianism, his personal warmth, and his critical intellect.

This book is a collection of the writings of the Critical Educator Mike Neary. It gathers together many of his key writings so as to sustain the legacy which Mike's life and work embodied. This book is a combination of Mike's most significant writings on Critical Education alongside other contributions written about him and his work.
