Although the details, differed in various colonial contexts, the driving ideology behind mission schools was that Christian morality was highest form of civilisation needed for non-Europeans to be useful members of colonies under British rule. This comprehensive survey of multi-colonial sites over the long time span clearly describes the missionary paradox that to draw in pupils they needed to provide secular education, but that secular education was seen to lead both to a moral crisis and to anti-British sentiments.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmAuthor: Felicity JenszGenre: Society & CultureBook Series: Studies in ImperialismTopic: Children's Learning & Education, History, Philosophy & SpiritualityItem Width: 17mmItem Weight: 581gRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
