This book calls upon engineers to cultivate a passion for social justice and peace and to develop the skill and knowledge set needed to take practical action for change within the profession. Because many engineers do not receive education and training that support the kinds of critical thinking, reflective decision-making, and effective action necessary to achieve social change, engineers concerned with social justice can feel powerless and isolated as they remain complicit. Utilizing techniques from radical pedagogies of liberation and other movements for social justice, this book presents a roadmap for engineers to become empowered and engage one another in a process of learning and action for social justice and peace.Table of contents: What Do we Mean by Social Justice? / Mindsets in Engineering / Engineering and Social Injustice / Toward a More Socially Just Engineering / Turning Knowledge into Action: Strategies | | 出版日期 | Book 2008 | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-79940-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-79939-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-79940-2Series ISSN 1933-3633 Series E-ISSN 1933-3641 | | issn_series | 1933-3633 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2008 |
