Delaney, Douglas E., Ed.; Engen, Robert C., Ed.; Fitzpatrick, Meghan, Ed. – University of British Columbia Press, 2018
Common military education was the lifeblood of the armies, navies, and air forces of the British Empire.

Raina, Dhruv – Contemporary Education Dialogue, 2017

Dutta, Sutapa – History of Education, 2022
A geophysical perception of the ecumene had always existed in the consciousness of Indians even in precolonial days.

Colonial…

Nambissan, Geetha B. – Contemporary Education Dialogue, 2020
In this article, I draw attention to the early 1850s in the Bombay Presidency when the colonial government first assumed responsibility for mass education. I show that in the subsequent decades, publicly funded schooling was narrow and extremely exclusive as a result of the strong opposition of dominant castes to the education of the Dalits…
