Description |
Singapore under the ruling People’s Action Party government has been categorized as a developmental state which has utilized education as an instrument of its economic policies and nation-building agenda. However, contrary to accepted assumptions, the use of education by the state to promote economic growth did not begin with the coming to power of the People’s Action Party in 1959. In Singapore, the colonial state had been using education to meet the demands of its colonial economy well before the rise of the post-independence developmental state. Education, Industrialization and the End of Empire in Singapore examines how the state’s use of education as an instrument of economic policy had its origins in the colonial economy and intensified during the process of decolonization. By covering this process the history of vocational and technical education and its relationship with the economy is traced from the colonial era through to decolonization and into the early postcolonial period. |

Abstract |
The teaching of the history of Southeast Asia at the undergraduate level in an institute in Nanyang Technological University included a sub-theme on urban colonial history. The study of this history has integrated a walk about the town on an 1860 map for some years now. Entailing students to take measurements of objects and structures on the trip as well as match the contemporary situation to old images gave rise to room for students to analyze themes on the development of the town as a corollary of the rise of the British in Southeast Asia as well as critically discuss aspects of technological and urban development in colonial ports or towns. In the process, students are also encouraged to explore adjacent discourses such as heritage studies in order to better understand past developments in context of their change and continuity to contemporary society. |
