Abstract

This contribution builds upon Anne Booths extensive work on the differentiatedevolution of colonial education systems in East and Southeast Asia. The article probesfurther into the underlying causes of the poor Dutch legacy. It is basically arguedthat the spread of popular education was not only hampered by a lack of financialcommitment, but also by notable inequalities in the allocation of funds for educationand a great reluctance to support initiatives in investment in private education, which,I think, should be interpreted as the result of the metropolitan commitment to secularcolonial rule in an overwhelmingly Islamic society.Keywords: Colonialism, Education, Inequality, Islamic Society
