Editorial Description

Drawing from her experiences working with prospective teachers in Ghana, Laura J. Dull explores the complexities and contradictions of education in a country both skeptical of U.S. and World Bank policies and fearful of rejecting them. Her analysis provides a powerful case study of teacher preparation and nation-building in the broader context of post-colonial development and globalization in Africa.
