13According to the translator of Pedagogy of the Oppressed, “[t]he term conscientização refers to learning to perceive social, political and economic contradictions, and to take action against the oppressive elements of reality” (Freire 2005: 35, n.1).

14Taylor has argued consistently in his major works such as Sources of the Self (1989) that a sense of the good powers our cultural ideals, whether individualism or instrumental rationality. About the moral source of contemporary ideals that have even lost their moral force, Taylor writes: “Learning to be the disengaged subject of rational control… is accompanied, even powered by, a sense of our dignity as rational agents.… But insofar as the sources now lie within us, more particularly, within certain powers we possess, the basis is there for an independent, i.e., non-theistic morality” (1989: 315).
