Rogers, Alan
International Review of Education/Internationale Zeitschrift fuer Erziehungswissenschaft/Revue Internationale de l'Education, v46 n1-2 p67-92 May 2000
Examines the issues surrounding the cultural transfer of educational practices and institutions between industrialized countries and developing societies. Pays particular attention to adult education. Suggests that such transfers are most successful when the receiving society takes control of the transfer and comes to own it and to adapt it to their own usages. (Contains 62 references.) (VWC)
