It is almost a half-century that a movement has begun to challenge the scholars and
teachers of the world to rethink about the education systems and the role of power and politics in
it. However, this movement, which has been called critical pedagogy (CP), is still unfamiliar for
some Iranian teachers. Therefore, our duty as researchers is to make the ELT community more
familiar with this issue. This study has provided an overview about the concept of CP, submitted
the similar terms by different scholars, and tried to manifest CP’s roots by a reference to the
critical thinking, in order to reconstruct the pedagogy with a critical point of view in Iran.
