{"product_id":"adults-learning-in-social-action-von-shuchuan-liao","title":"Adults Learning in Social Action","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book investigates how Taiwanese women can learn  from their participation in social action. In  particular, it focuses on the women in the  Homemakers'' Union and Foundation (HUF). Through  their active participation, these women''s  experiences resulted in personal and social  transformation. HUF members, as homemakers and  mothers, initiated and sustained the social  movement. Motherwork--living and working with and  for children--became the main force to mobilize and  continue the movement. This book has demonstrated  that ordinary people working collaboratively became  knowledge initiators, not knowledge consumers.  Ordinary people have the capacity to develop a  critical analysis, to find their voices, and to  implement political action. This book might be inspiring for those who are  interested in women studies and nonformal adult  education. Most adult educational activity focuses  on technical rationality, not finding meaning in  citizenship. For the most part, learning has become  very instrumental and in the control of  professionals. The homemakers point us to perhaps a  more appropriate goal, the quality of life and  communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838321882\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHomemakers' Union and Foundation (HUF) of Taiwan\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838321882","offer_id":39498877141085,"sku":"9783838321882","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/2f7f35e4-c6ba-4ddf-8eb2-0abd5a12b966.jpg?v=1758259577","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/adults-learning-in-social-action-von-shuchuan-liao","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
