Education in Small States: Growth of Interest and Emergence of a Theory.
Bray, Mark
Prospects, v21 n4 p503-16 1991
Examines educational policies and issues in small nations and territories with high degrees of administrative autonomy. Maintains that strong feelings of nationalism can be both a benefit and a barrier to establishing an effective educational system. Argues that small countries are not simply scaled-down versions of larger nations; they have an educational ecology of their own. (CFR)
