give me a note on the topic Education as a civilizing mission
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 5 years, 5 months ago

The 'Civilizing Mission' of colonizers meant the spread of western culture, thoughts, education, language, science and logic in the colonies. ... They thought that it was the duty of the superior races to educate and civilize the people of Asia and Africa. The mission civilisatrice (in English "civilising mission") was a rationale for intervention or colonization, purporting to contribute to the spread of civilization, and used mostly in relation to the Westernization of indigenous peoples in the 15th – 20th centuries. The term 'civilizing mission' refers to 'the grand project that justified colonialism as a means of redeeming the backward, aberrant, violent, oppressed, undeveloped people of the non-European world by incorporating them into the universal civilization of Europe'.
