Indigenous Peoples, Globalization, and Education: Making Connections.
St. Denis, Verna
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v46 n1 p36-48 Spr 2000
Globalization pushes aside social, cultural, and ethical goals of education in favor of marketplace goals. Two stories of the indigenous Ju/'hoansi tribe in Botswana illustrate how even well-intentioned multicultural education programs can marginalize indigenous people, and how "globalization from below," fueled by communities of sentiment, can redirect globalization toward advancing social justice in a sustainable future.
