- Summary
- "Can education play a role in mitigating the ethnic and religious tensions that plague so many developing countries? How might experts in the developed world contribute to such efforts without slipping back into the well-worn ruts of colonialism and neocolonialism? In Islamic Identity, Postcoloniality, and Educational Policy, Jeffrey Ayala Milligan critically examines these and other questions through the educational history of the southern Philippines, where long-simmering tensions between government and Muslim Filipinos have claimed more than 100,000 lives and profoundly disrupted socio-economic development. Analyzing that history via the interpretive frameworks of postcolonial theory and the concept of internal colonialism, Milligan traces the evolution of educational policies targeting Muslim Filipinos from the dawn of American colonization to the present day for insight into the potential and pitfalls of educational responses to ethno-religious conflict."--BOOK JACKET.
