Acknowledgements
My first thanks goes to my wife Katja Klikauer for proofreading this book comprehensively and most thoroughly. I am most obliged to Shirley Steinberg for her assistance on my early thoughts about critical pedagogy. This book has received no administrative, technical, editorial support or funding from the University of Western Sydney (UWS) or any other private or public source.

But my initial appreciation also goes to the German trade union foundation, the Hans-Böckler Foundation (www.boeckler.de), for supporting my transition from toolmaker to academic graduating from Bremen University (Germany), Boston University (USA), and Warwick University (UK).

My last thanks remains as always reserved to Palgrave Macmillan’s Liz Barlow and Maddie Holder (commissioning) a
