Education and Empowered Citizenship in Mali


Listen Later

This Book, Education and Empowered Citizenship in Mali, examines the relationship between education and political participation in Mali. The author uses survey data and interviews to explore how different types of education—public, private, and Islamic—affect citizens' political knowledge and engagement with the state. The study finds a correlation between education and political knowledge but a less straightforward relationship between education and participation, particularly in "difficult" forms of participation. The research also highlights the influence of factors such as weak political parties, trust in the state, and the role of religious and traditional leaders on citizen engagement. Finally, the book considers the implications of these findings for Mali's democratic development.
