This book describes and evaluates the strategies that South Africa pursued in its efforts to establish an education system consistent with the country's new democratic values and its new economic and social needs. The authors focus on three cultural themes: the elimination of racial barriers in the state education system, the development of a unified and equitable school funding system, and the introduction of a new curriculum that embodied the precepts and goals of the new democracy.
