Synopsis

What does it mean to be a change agent within society? Simply by being present in society, we all act to some degree as change agents, with some—social activists, community leaders, and lifelong learners—affecting greater change than others.

Based on questions author Dr. E. Beverly Young first explored in her doctoral studies, Self within Society examines social change from a philosophical viewpoint.

Dr. Young’s fascination with social change began with a simple question: “Are you a linear or global thinker?” Dr. Young recognized the answer was of vital importance for people seeking to understand their role as change agents—and their role in advocating for change.

In answering this question, Young explores scholarly discussions on social change and its relationship to lifelong learning. The result is a valuable reference book for adult education practitioners and their students as well as social activists and others interested in exploring the complex way society develops and changes due to the thoughts, attitudes, and actions of those living within it.

Dr. Young balances theory and practice throughout her in-depth discussion, making complex philosophical points accessible for adult learners just entering one of the most fascinating scholarly debates: our role in societal change.
