Introduction MICHAEL HOECHSMANN, PAUL R. CARR, AND GINA THÉSÉE INTRODUCTION Democracy 2.0, Old and New Media, and the Quest for Engaged Participation INTRODUCTION The UN Declaration of Human Rights laid down what any person might reasonably expect, yet there are remarkably few people who enjoy these rights. With cameras in the hands of activists and meaningful distribution of those images, we will witness what really goes on in this world and hopefully want to change it. (Peter Gabriel, in Gregory et al, 2005) I think we are moving rapidly toward the obsolescence and eventual disappearance of a single traditional model and its replacement by others that are hybrids. (Gilberto Gil, 2007, in Rohter, 2007) In 1992, one year before the launch of the World Wide Web (WWW) and a decade before the seismic shift of Web 2.0 enabled broad social participation in the production and circulation of media texts, the renowned rock star Peter Gabriel founded Witness, an organization that “trains and supports activists and citizens around the world to use video safely, ethically, and effectively to expose human rights abuse and fight for change” (witness.org). The goal of Gabriel’s project was to put cameras in the hands of people who needed them to expose oppressive conditions and to document social movements. Twenty-five years later, the project is still running, but, as cameras have become much more prevalent, Witness can now focus more on direct campaigns, drawing attention to the valuable work that is produced. To hearken back to 1992 is to consider an era where media producers and owners, for the most part, controlled what could be published or aired. Media monopolies were based on two major edifices, one economic—producing, publishing, circulating, and broadcasting were all costly practices mainly owned by a small number of media mega-corporations—and the other political—media was produced by highly trained “experts” and the majority of these experts were White men from the global North (McChesney, 2015; McChesney & Pickard, 2011). Fast-forward twenty-five years, and there has been a profound “democratization” of access to the technological means of media production and circulation, and also to the knowledge needed to make and circulate media messages (Baym, 2015). This by no means is to deny that contemporary digital divides do not exist, and that the majority of citizens in many xv M. HOECHSMANN ET AL. INTRODUCTION countries still do not actively participate in the newly democratized media spheres. PARTICIPATORY MEDIA CULTURES However, the landscape of how media is produced, by whom, and for what purposes has shifted, and the contributions in this book are a testament to that reality (van It is virtually impossible to imagine a society or world that is not already Dijck, 2013). The chapters assembled in this collection demonstrate the impact of the (re)presented through media forms. The popular culture imagination is already culture of participation in media-making and consuming enabled by the Web 2.0 on inhabited by pre-packaged soundbites of common-sense wisdom derived from local and broader national and international democratic processes. hegemonic sources, and the mainstream corporate media has long skillfully Another important example comes from the Brazilian Minister of Culture from demonstrated its ability to incorporate, co-opt, and sublimate yesterday’s radical or 2003–2007, the renowned musician Gilberto Gil, one of the greats of Brazil’s alternative ideas into today’s slogans and products. Nonetheless, over the last decade tropicalismo movement, who developed an initiative called Ponta da Cultura we have witnessed a profound transformation in who shapes the media and how it is (Culture Bridge) that would enable poor youth from Brazil’s favelas to not only shaped. The emergence and consolidation of Web 2.0 has irrevocably transformed to produce music, but to circulate it on the Internet. These were the heady days a number of media functions, particularly in relation to news reporting, advertising, of early Web 2.0, when the Internet transformed from a space where specialists and music and film production, and has opened and created spaces where anyone (Web “masters”) managed content for publishers to one where the majority of the with a cell-phone or computer and Internet access can, potentially, become a global material online was produced by end-users.

Paulo Freire as Learning Theorist John D. Holst The Pennsylvania State University Abstract: I defend the thesis that Paulo Freire had a theory of learning. Contrary to what learning theorists sustain, I will present a theory of learning in Freire’s work. Key words: adult learning, dialectics, lifelong education, Paulo Freire, praxis It was while in exile that I realized I was truly interested in learning (Freire, 1985, p. 181). Teaching and learning are a part of the same process of knowing (Freire, 1993a, p. 112). A theory of learning is central to the field of Adult Education. Moreover, a theory of learning is actually increasingly important if we consider the fact that we are now referring to our field as lifelong learning rather than adult education.

  • PAULO FREIRE (1921–97) Heinz-Peter Gerhardt1
    The following text was originally published in Prospects: the quarterly review of comparative education (Paris, UNESCO: International Bureau of Education), vol. XXIII, no. 3/4, 1993, p.439–58. ©UNESCO:International Bureau of Education, 2000 This document may be reproduced free of charge as long as acknowledgement is made of the source. PAULO FREIRE (1921–97) Heinz-Peter Gerhardt1 Paulo Reglus Neves Freire was born in Recife, the capital of Brazil’s northeast province, one of the most impoverished parts of this large Latin American nation. Although raised in a middle-class family, Freire became interested in the education of the poor people in his region. He qualified as a lawyer and developed a teaching ‘system’ for all levels of education. He was imprisoned twice in his own country and became famous outside it. Today, Paulo Freire must be considered as the most well known educator of our time. The fundamentals of his ‘system’ point to an educational process that focuses on the students’ environment. Freire assumes that the learners must understand their own reality as part of their learning activity. It is not enough to assume a student can read the phrase:‘Eve saw a grape’. The student should learn to understand Eve in her social context, find out who worked to produce the grape and who profited from this type of work. This ‘system’ brought about Freire’s exile in 1964, following seventy-five days in prison, after having been accused of being a ‘revolutionary and an ignorant’. He then spent four years in Chile and one year in the United States.

  • A Review of Paulo Freire's Later Work
    04-400 Ch10 8/25/04 6:40 AM Page 164 10 Education for Radical Humanization in Neoliberal Times: A Review of Paulo Freire’s Later Work Peter Mayo, University of Malta With the posthumous publication of a number of his last writings, Paulo Freire’s oeuvre is almost complete. It therefore seems to be an appropriate time to take stock of Freire’s later work, to indicate, among other things, the light it sheds on the evolution of his thought and its significance in an age in which cynicism is rife. It seems to have become unfashionable, in this age, to dream of a world that is different from and better than the current one. Remaining steadfast, till the very end, to his cherished principles of radical humanization and democ- racy, Freire continued to produce work that provides resources of hope, agency, and reinvigoration in these neoliberal times. To many of us cultural workers, engaged in a constant search for emancipatory possibilities, his work stands as a crag of sanity facing the contemporary tide of nihilistic madness. FACTORS INFLUENCING LATER WORK The fatalism brought about by neoliberalism is one of several factors that influ- enced Freire’s later output in what is a very large oeuvre. As his widow, Nita Freire, told Carmel Borg and me in an interview at her Sao Paulo residence, one year after Freire’s death: “He was concerned with the number of persons who let themselves be deceived by neoliberal slogans and so become submissive and apathetic when confronted with their former dreams. Paulo used a metaphor for this situation: “They have gone to the other side of the river!” (Nita Freire, in Borg and Mayo 2000, 109).1 There were, of course, other important factors that influenced his later work.

    Case Study – Developing Skills through the ‘Customer Care and Quality Management’ Course Isswar JHEENGUT Mauritius College of the Air [email protected] This course was developed in line with Government Policy ‘to put people first’ and at the request of the Ministry of Civil Service and Administrative Reforms. It was meant for continuous professional development of public officers in customer service excellence through Open Distance Learning (ODL) and was guided by the South African ‘Batho Pele Principles’. http://www.southafrica.net/index.cfm?SitePageID=386 Batho Pele Principles were initiated in South Africa more than a decade ago. The South African Batho Pele Principles provide one overarching vision to guide public service managers. Batho Pele is a Sesotho phrase meaning 'People First', committing the public service to serve all the people of South Africa. Batho Pele is about eliminating wasteful and expensive internal systems that were not designed to put the needs of the people first. It is also about making sure that the public service’s financial planning is in line with the public’s needs and priorities. Batho Pele is a commitment to values and principles. 'Customer' is nevertheless a useful term in the context of improving service delivery because it embraces certain principles which are as fundamental to public service delivery as they are to the provision of services for commercial gain. To treat citizens as 'customers' implies: listening to their views and taking account of them in making decisions about what services should be provided; treating them with consideration and respect; making sure that the promised level and quality of service is always of the highest standard; 1 responding swiftly and sympathetically when standards of service fall below the promised standard.
