Literacy, Power, And Democracy In Mozambique: The Governance Of Learning From Colonization To The Present (Conflict and Social Change Series)

In this book, the author explores how workers in one post-independence factory made sense of literacy and used it in their daily lives. It probes the extent to which the government literacy programs served as a tool for a more active voice in the shifting power configurations of factory and community, situated within the larger context of Mozambique's option for a socialist development model.
