This original volume examines the collaboration between East
Timorese and international staff in the rebuilding of the education
sector during the United Nations Transitional Administration in
East Timor (UNTAET) 1999-2002. Using interviews, contemporary
newspaper articles and reports from UN sources and the World Bank,
the book enables a comprehensive analysis of Timorese agency.
Examining choices made by the Timorese and drawing comparison with
other former Portuguese colonies, the text considers the power of
the Timorese elite, the role of nepotism and corruption, the
preservation of the Indonesian curriculum and the selection of
Portuguese as the medium of instruction and official language -
together with Tetum. Concluding with a contemporary discussion on
the educational achievements for East Timorese children during
UNTAET compared with those of today, Rebuilding the Education
Sector in East Timor during UNTAET will be of interest to
academics, researchers and post-graduate students in the fields of
post-conflict studies, post-colonial education and language policy
as well as East Timor more specifically. This book will also
benefit graduate students and scholars in teacher education. Trina
Supit completed her PhD at the University of Sydney, Australia. She
was a member of the UNTAET Division of Education.
