Abstract	Changing historical conditions posit new problems, define different projects, and often demand fresh discourses. In some cases, theories fashioned in one historical moment seem hopelessly out of date, if not irrelevant, in another. Any critical theory both defines and is defined by the problems posed by the contexts it attempts to address. The question of shifting politics and historical contexts is evident in looking back to a time historically when the author wrote "Theory and Resistance in Education": one cannot escape the issue of changing historical conditions. In this article, the author rethinks his position on resistance and schooling. Given the current historical conjuncture, which poses a new set of problems for educators, the author wants to invoke, briefly, the spirit of pedagogical and political resistance in addressing the current attack by corporate culture on public schools and democratic public life. He shares some notes on a critical theory of educational struggle. (Contains 8 notes.) (ERIC).
