The book investigates the impact of flexible short-term work contracts and inadequate social safety nets on educational paradigms that align with these economic conditions. It draws on empirical studies from Germany, the US, and Latin America, incorporating Vygotsky's theories to analyze how these pedagogies shape child development. Additionally, it explores alternative educational models from diverse contexts, including California and Brazil's landless peasant movement, highlighting potential solutions to the challenges posed by contemporary economic structures.
