Description

Literacy and the Politics of Representation by Routledge explores how literacy functions as a central measure of individual and national development in modern society, shaping discussions about the public sphere, economic systems, citizenship and self-governance. This academic work deconstructs the constructed nature of public understanding around literacy by presenting detailed examples of how literacy is represented across diverse public contexts. The book investigates the mechanisms through which knowledge about literacy is created and distributed, identifies the location and relative authority of knowledge-makers, and examines the different semiotic frameworks used to represent literacy in contemporary discourse. Essential for students, educators and researchers interested in language studies and critical literacy theory.
