Notas: | Originally published in 1993, Silencing Ivan Illichfell out of print when the original publisher went out of business in 1995. The author, David Gabbard, states that the book was pivotal in the evolution of his understanding of schools. Delving into Foucault's work to forge a methodology, he wanted to understand the discursive (symbolic) forces and relations of power and knowledge responsible for the marginalization of Ivan Illich from educational discourse. In short, Illich was ""silenced"" for having committed the heretical act of denying the benevolence of state-enforced, compulsory schooli. |
