Back to School Blueprint (for Counter Education)

On the back of the boxed 1970 edition of sociologists Maurice Stein and Larry Miller's radical Blueprint for Counter Education, the authors wrote, "Inside this box are three charts and a book, the tools for creating a new educational environment. This counter-university makes obsolete the traditional university process. Surrounded by charts, the participant will be confronted by ideas and issues that compel him to interact with everything going on around him—from movies, to riots, to political campaigns. There is no text book, no syllabus, no final exam; and the 'faculty' includes Marcuse, McLuhan, Eldridge Cleaver, and Jean-Luc Godard. THE REVOLUTION BEGINS HERE." From the Bauhaus to Black Mountain, read more about Inventory Press' facsimile reprint of this defining document of the 60s counter culture here!
