Summary
This title addresses the perennial question of how to promote Africa's indigenous languages as medium of instruction in educational systems. Breaking with the traditional approach to the continent's language question by focusing on the often overlooked issue of the link between African languages and economic development, it argues that African languages are an integral part of a nation's socio-political and economic development.
