Literacy, Power, and Democracy in Mozambique: The Governance of Learning from Colonization to the Present

by Judith Marshall

This book explores the relations between literacy and "people's power" in the context of Mozambique's project of socialist construction. It probes the tensions between literacy as a tool for grassroots democracy versus literacy as a tool for mobilizing at the base for top-down initiatives.
