Debate as Global Pedagogy: Rwanda Rising illustrates that the teaching of debate offers an ideal educational approach for the prevention and remediation of genocide. As the antithesis of propaganda, debate and argument instruction promotes the critical thinking necessary to resist processes of propaganda that enable injustice and human rights abuses. Case studies of argumentation instruction and deliberative forums worldwide demonstrate how environments of discursive complexity can be fostered through education in debate and argumentation. The central example of Rwanda recovering from genocide in 1994 with help from innovative pedagogy by iDebate Dreamers Academy provides a model for how argumentation instruction can reduce and prevent social injustices.

Scholars and teachers of argumentation and debated will find much to appreciate in Debate as Global Pedagogy, while much of the book is dedicated to case study and theory, there is much to be gained in the way of practical applications in the book- not to mention a sense that even while travel is encumbered by health and geopolitical concerns, it is possible to implement debate as a global pedagogy in all classrooms.
