The increasing appearance of new educational technology in today’s classrooms makes it imperative to rethink classic questions about knowledge production in schools.

Media, Power and Citizenship

Over the past decade, the rise of populist democracies in South America has taken place against a backdrop of growing corporate media opposition.
