On the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of its publication, \u003ci\u003eIvan Illich Fifty Years Later \u003c\/i\u003elooks at the theological roots of Illich's thought and the intellectual and ideological strands that contributed to his ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGuided by the central question of how Illich reached the point of writing \u003ci\u003eDeschooling Society\u003c\/i\u003e, the book sheds light on how Illich produced a critique of schooling that can be defined by its eclecticism. Bruno-Jofr? and Igelmo Zald?var explore how this controversial book was framed by Illich's early neo-scholastic and anti-modern foundation, his discovery of St. Thomas through Jacques Maritain, and the existential turning points that influenced his public life and intellectual direction in moving from a critique of the Church as institution to a critique of schooling. Drawing from the interpretative theories of Quentin Skinner, Reinhart Koselleck, and William H. Sewell and from concepts such as educationalization, transnationality, and configuration, among other heuristic tools, the authors provide an original and cross-disciplinary analysis of \u003ci\u003eDeschooling Society\u003c\/i\u003e and its place in Illich's journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRosa Bruno-Jofr?\u003c\/b\u003e is a professor in the Faculty of Education cross-appointed to the Department of History at Queen's University and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in the Humanities and Social Sciences. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eJon Igelmo Zaldivar\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor in the Faculty of Education at the Complutense University of Madrid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50901786067218,"sku":"9781487545062","price":62.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_af386055-5e8a-45cc-9e12-a6919295bfd4.jpg?v=1738438626","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/ivan-illich-fifty-years-later-situating-deschooling-society-in-his-intellectual-and-personal-journey-9781487545062","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
