America and Africa: A Comparative Study in Educational Philosophy.
Marah, John K.
Journal of Black Studies, v19 n4 p459-74 Jun 1989
Similarities between the educational philosophies of the United States in the first 70 years of the republic and those of many African states in the 1950s and 1960s are suggested. Parallels include rejection of European education and the notion of a national university. A progressive Pan-African educational system is recommended. (AF)
