Description:Knowledge transfer is one of the most important engines of industrialization and modernization. Southeast Asia experienced a variety of colonialisms, and in the case of Thailand went uncolonised. It was therefore subject to different patterns of knowledge transfer and dispersion over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.Because the West, from the nineteenth century, was the fount of 'modern' methods of public, financial and business administration, 'modern' technology, and certain hegemonic concepts, which constituted 'modern' thought (such as the nation-state and the international system), the extra-European world had to attain these new ways of doing things and did so in a variety of ways. Although this process took place at all levels of society, it was the local elites that took on the responsibility systematically. The establishment of new schooling institutions and curricula was the most tangible manifestation of the post-19th century phenomenon. However, knowledge is seldom received in whole and is often selected and manipulated by the recipients for their own purposes or to suit the very idiosyncratic conditions that prevail there.Focusing on the history of schools in Southeast Asia, contributors explore issue connected to schools and modernity, schools and politics, schools and the actions of Western teachers in the region. This book will be of interest to academics in the field of Southeast Asian Studies, Asian Studies, education, nationalism, and history.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
