« Quel rôle l’éducation a-t-elle joué dans l’entreprise coloniale européenne et quelle a été son importance à l’âge postcolonial ? Cet ouvrage offre de nouveaux éclairages sur les multiples reconfigurations de l’idée de « mission civilisatrice » ainsi que sur la complexité, les limites et la nature souvent ambivalente des politiques et des institutions scolaires dans le monde (post)colonial au cours du XXe siècle. Les études de cas portent sur des aires géographiques variées, allant de l’Afrique du Nord (Algérie, Maroc, Tunisie) et subsaharienne (Cameroun, Tanganyika, République centrafricaine, Rwanda), à l’Asie (Inde et Indochine) et l’Océanie. »
Avec une préface de Rebecca Rogers.
Avec le soutien de l’université de Lausanne (Fonds des publications) et de l’université de Genève (département d’Histoire générale et Maison de l’histoire).

« 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. »
