Description

Explore the complex relationship between language skills and academic success in postindustrial economies. This scholarly work by Mocombe and Tomlin examines how the black/white achievement gap persists in nations like the United States and Great Britain. By focusing on the emphasis placed on specific language skills, the text investigates why black American and black British-Caribbean youths face unique challenges within the educational system. This book provides a deep analysis of educational pedagogy within the contemporary capitalist world-system. It looks at the role of education as an institutional or ideological apparatus that functions under American hegemony. Readers will gain a better understanding of the sociolinguistic means and pedagogies used in global and local social contexts. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of sociolinguistics, education, and social structures in modern society.
