Description

Literacy serves as a fundamental metric for comparing individuals and nations in the modern world. It sits at the center of major public debates regarding economic markets, citizenship, self-governance, and the nature of the public sphere. This book from Routledge provides an in-depth look at how public understandings of literacy are constructed through various social and political lenses. By examining detailed examples of how literacy is represented across different public contexts, the text uncovers the ways knowledge about literacy is produced and shared. The content explores the specific locations of knowledge-makers and the relative power they hold within these systems. This work is an essential resource for those studying the relationship between language, power, and social representation in contemporary society.
