Landscapes of Literacy: Ethnographic Study of Functional Literacy in Marginal Philippine Communities - Softcover
Examines what it means to be functionally literate, how literacy can be measured and does it invariably promote development in the context of six types of marginal Philippine community, ranging from island fishing people to upland farmers and rice cultivators. The text demonstrates that the concepts of literacy and numeracy cannot be separated from their social and cultural settings and that standard measures of literacy used in industrialized countries are often inappropriate.
