Item Starting from Nina: The Poetic Soul of Paulo Freire(Canadian Association for the Study of Adult Education (CASAE)., 2023) Hall, Budd L; Barndt, Deborah; Jackson, Edward; Martin, D’Arcy; Thomas, BarbaraThis collaborative, co-authored article by Budd Hall, Deborah Barndt, Edward Jackson, D’Arcy Martin and Barbara Thomas explores the poetics of the work of Paulo Freire, the legendary Brazilian philosopher and educator. All five authors are themselves poets or people who have used poetry in their work as adult educators and facilitators of social justice. They believe that this is the first English-language publication of the poem “Recife Forever,” written by Freire himself about the city of his birth. It was written in Chile during his years of exile by the Brazilian dictator.Item Inequality, Higher Education and Knowledge Democracy(Newsletter of Association of Commonwealth Universities, 2020) Hall, Budd LIn this article, published in the Spring 2020 newsletter of the Association of Commonwealth Universities, Budd L. Hall looks at inequality and what it asks of higher education. It begins with the scale of poverty and homelessness in places as different as Victoria and India, and with research by Wilkinson and Pickett showing that both rich and poor fare better in more equal societies. The article then asks what a knowledge democracy movement might look like, drawing on John Gaventa’s idea of a knowledge strategy and on the work of Nyerere and Freire. Such a movement is kept apart from the knowledge economy, community engagement and open access to information, which are treated as supports rather than the movement itself. It closes by asking how community-university partnerships can strengthen knowledge democracy.Item Book review on Public Sociology as Educational Practice: Challenges, Dialogues and Counterpublics(2021) Hall, Budd LThis book review by Dr Budd L. Hall discusses Public Sociology as Educational Practice (2020), edited by Eurig Scandrett, which brings together about 40 activist scholars to link public sociology with social movement education and learning. The book is organised into three sections, Publics, Knowledges and Practices, covering topics such as gender justice, domestic abuse survivors, class, participatory research, community engagement and trade union education. Hall finds that the book makes a convincing case for public sociology as a way of challenging exploitation and oppression, and describes it as a major contribution. He also points out that its high price limits access for the very communities it engages with, and encourages readers to request it through their libraries.Item Injustices épistémiques et recherche participative: un agenda de recherche à la croisée de l’université et des communautés | Epistemic injustices and participatory research: a research agenda at the crossroads of the university and communities(UTS ePRESS, 2020-05-31) Godrie, Baptiste; Boucher, Maxime; Bissonnette, Sylvia; Chaput, Pierre; Flores, Javier; Dupéré, Sophie; Gélineau, Lucie; Piron, Florence; Bandini, AudeCet article présente un cadre d'analyse innovant ancré dans le concept d'injustices épistémiques pour évaluer les recherches participatives.
