Produktbeschreibung

Firstvolume in the series 'Leuven Studies in Mission and Modernity'Missionaries have been subject to academic andsocietal debate. Some scholars highlight their contribution to the spread ofmodernity and development among local societies, whereas others question theirmotives and emphasise their inseparable connection with colonialism. In thisvolume, fifteen authors - from both Europe and the Global South - address theseoften polemical positions by focusing on education, one of the most prominentfields in which missionaries have been active. They elaborate on Protestantismas well as Catholicism, work with cases from the 18th to the 21st century, andcover different colonial empires in Asia and Africa. The volume introduces newangles, such as gender, the agency of the local population, and the perspectiveof the child.Contributors: AditiAthreya (KU Leuven), Joseph Bara (Indian Institute of Dalit Studies), MaryChepkemoi (Kenyatta University), Kim Christiaens (KADOC-KU Leuven), MaaikeDerksen (Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen), Rinald D'Souza (KU Leuven), CarineDujardin (KADOC-KU Leuven), Idesbald Goddeeris (KU Leuven), Gwendal Rannou(Universit Paris 1 Panthon-Sorbonne), Parimala V.
