"Knowledge is Power" - theorized in edu?

Hello there.

I'm curious, how has the idea of power inherent in knowledge (possession) been theorized in education studies/philosophy of education? Could anyone help me out with this?

Freire and educational emancipation movement seems to be focused on social power relationships, Ranciere then zooms in on the teacher-student relationship, but who wrote about the basic value of information as an emancipatory tool?

Thanks!
