Abdurahman in the modernisation of Islam-oriented schools. Bibliography: pages 471-494. This dissertation concerns the modernisation of Islam-oriented schooling in Cape Town and environs whereby Muslim Mission Primary Schools emerge as a socio-cultural compromise between community needs and State school provision policy. It proceeds from the recognition of the cultural diversity that has since the pioneering days characterised the social order of the Mother City. Two religious and cultural traditions have coexisted here in a superordinate and subordinate relationship; one developed a school system for domestication and cultural assimilation, and the other a covert instructional programme for an alternative religious system and behaviour code. The thrust of the argument is that the Islamic community, developed on the periphery of society that excluded non-Christians, were in the main concerned with cultural transmission, first in the homes of Free Blacks during the Dutch regime, and later in the mosques that arose when religious freedom was obtained. 2016-03-09T09:06:59Z 2016-03-09T09:06:59Z 1986 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/17603 eng application/pdf School of Education Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
