Education and Rural Development
By S V Ramani Rao.
Description
This pioneering book explores, through a detailed case study, the relationship between education and the development process. The general assumption is that the provision of educational opportunities will promote upward mobility, reduce the disparities between various caste and class groups, and accelerate the process of socio-economic development. Rao's research reveals that education has served to reinforce the existing disparities instead of acting as an agent of social change. - from Amzon
