This volume concentrates on the processes and practices of formal education, which shaped, and were shaped by, imperial values, attitudes and behaviour. It is concerned with:
- The myths and visions of imperialism;
- The nature and extent of ethnocentric attitudes, declared and undeclared;
- The use of education as a means of disseminating and reinforcing imperial images;
- The changing concept of imperialism as reflected in the emphases of educational literature
- The different perceptions of imperialism in the various social and ethnic strata of metropolitan and overseas communities and education systems
- The assimiliation, adaptation and rejection of metropolitan educational models
- The issue of imperial education as enlightenment, hegemony and control.
The book features chapters by educationalists, historians and sociologists on education as a cornerstone in the construction of imperial control.
