GLOBAL HISTORIES OF EDUCATION EDUCATION AND D...

This open access edited volume offers an analysis of the entangled histories of education and
development in twentieth-century Africa. It deals with the plurality of actors that competed
and collaborated to formulate educational and developmental paradigms and projects: debating
their utility and purpose  pondering their necessity and risk  and evaluating their intended
and unintended consequences in colonial and postcolonial moments. Since the late nineteenth
century  the educability of the native was the subject of several debates and experiments:
numerous voices  arguments  and agendas emerged  involving multiple institutions and experts 
governmental and non-governmental  religious and laic  operating from the corridors of
international organizations to the towns and rural villages of Africa. This plurality of
expressions of political  social  cultural  and economic imagination of education and
development is at the core of this collective work.
