Abstract:

This book examines the role that language-in-education policy,
historically, has played in shaping possibilities for development, within
countries in the Sub-Saharan and South Asian regions. This discussion
takes account also of the complex ways in which language, education and
development, are linked to the changing global labour market. Key
questions are raised regarding the impact of international policy
imperatives on development possibilities.
