The volume Learning with Adults: A Critical Pedagogical Introduction by Leona M. English and Peter Mayo presents a critical, politically informed examination of adult education. It emphasizes democratic practice, challenges oppressive policies and neoliberal accountability, and affirms an emancipatory vision of civic engagement.","LEARNING WITH ADULTS  \nINTERNATIONAL ISSUES IN ADULT EDUCATION  \nVolume 8  \nSeries Editor:  \nPeter Mayo, University of Malta, Msida, Malta  \nScope:  \nThis international book series attempts to do justice to adult education as an ever expanding field. It is intended to be internationally inclusive and attract writers and readers from different parts of the world. It also attempts to cover many of the areas that feature prominently in this amorphous field. It is a series that seeks to underline the global dimensions of adult education, covering a whole range of perspectives. In this regard, the series seeks to fill in an international void by providing a book series that complements the many journals, professional and academic, that exist in the area. The scope would be broad enough to comprise such issues as ‘Adult Education in specific regional contexts’,‘Adult Education in the Arab world’, ‘Participatory Action Research and Adult Education’, ‘Adult Education and Participatory Citizenship’, ‘Adult Education and the World Social Forum’, ‘Adult Education and Disability’, ‘Adult Education in Prisons’, ‘Adult Education, Work and Livelihoods’, ‘Adult Education and Migration’, ‘The Education of Older Adults’, ‘Southern Perspectives on Adult Education’, ‘Adult Education and Progressive Social Movements’,‘Popular Education in Latin America and Beyond’, ‘Eastern European perspectives on Adult Education’, ‘An anti-Racist Agenda in Adult Education’, ‘Postcolonial perspectives on Adult Education’, ‘Adult Education and Indigenous Movements’,‘Adult Education and Small States’. Thereis also room for single country studies of Adult Education provided that a market for such a study is guaranteed.  \nEditorial Advisory Board:  \nPaula Allman, Research Fellow, University of Nottingham, England Stephen Brookfield, University of St Thomas, Minnesota, USA Phyllis Cunningham, University of Illinois, Urbana Champagne, USA Waguida El Bakary, American University in Cairo, Egypt  \nBudd L.
