Examines transitions from critical to postcritical and postmodern to premodern that underlie Philip Wexler's writing on social and educational theory, discussing critical social psychology and examining social and spiritual transformation in the postmodern world. For Wexler's envisioned transformation to occur, it must be accompanied by ongoing dialog on esoteric traditions and exploration by educational leaders of spiritual disciplines and techniques. (SM)
