Hart, Mechthild – Convergence, 1997
Decries the contradictions of a corporate state that benefits from poverty and promotes "family values" while devaluing the life-affirming child-rearing work done in private. Argues that life-affirming perspectives should guide adult educators to unlearn "bottom-line" thinking in their educational efforts. (SK)
