Recenzii
'A timely and critical analysis of inequality, politics, and power in Tanzania. Dilger shows how religiously diverse discursive and social practices are constructed and reconstructed through specific material conditions which disproportionately position educational institutions in relation to their faith.' Thomas Ndaluka, University of Dar es Salaam
'A powerful analysis of religion and education in Tanzania. Dilger's insightful and sensitive handling of a rich range of sources is impressive. This is an important contribution to our understanding of the intersection of schools and states, markets and inequalities.' Amy Stambach, University of Wisconsin, Madison
'Focusing primarily on Tanzania (although the reflections and data could be extended to many multi-religious societies), this is a brilliant and novel approach to the study and understanding of Religious Education in Africa. Scholars, researchers, and laypersons who want to engage with the place of religion in the education market under (post-)neoliberal conditions have a well-researched, accessibly written source in Dilger's work. This book is a foremost contribution to the debate on and understanding of how religion works in educational development and how education works in religious development.' Asonzeh Ukah, University of Cape Town
'Fee-paying faith-oriented schools are playing an increasingly important role for education provision in a wider context of growing inequalities and neoliberal politics. Exploring Christian and Muslim schools in Tanzania from a comparative perspective, Dilger expertly addresses timely questions about how the quest for moral becoming and the marketization of education intertwine. His book is thoughtful, sensitive, and richly detailed – a compelling read with much to offer to anyone interested in religion, morality, inequality, and education.' Hannah Hoechner, University of East Anglia
'This book will clearly have an important influence on future research concerning morality, inequality, and education - and particularly among scholars whose work focuses on religion and/or African contexts. Yet the book's influence may not be confined to university campuses, as Dilger himself seems to anticipate. Books have interesting lives, and this is particularly true in Dar es Salaam where a number of scholarly monographs on matters of religion and uneven patterns of development in Tanzania have, sometimes years after their publication, been swept up into ongoing debates concerning Muslim marginalisation that take place in the city's ordinary streets and houses on a daily basis. There is every chance that Dilger's book will join them.' Benjamin Kirby, Anthropology Book Forum
'Learning Morality, Inequalities, and Faith: Christian and Muslim Schools in Tanzania is a well written and accessible book that builds on solid ethnography and carefully situates ethnographic findings within historical, structural, and political contexts … The book is an important contribution to our understanding of the complex intersection of religion, education, and social inequality in Africa and possibly beyond. Since the book addresses a variety of themes - the formation of ethical subjects, schooling and the liberalization of education, religion, politics of Muslim-Christian coexistence in Africa - it will be of interest to a broad readership.' Martin Lindhardt, Journal of Religion in Africa
'Learning Morality, Inequalities, and Faith is a versatile piece of scholarship. Throughout the book I found no trace of overgeneralization. Dilger is a stickler for objectivity. The author must be commended not only for his nuanced knowledge of Kiswahili but also for his refined finesse in rendering Kiswahili discussions into English. It is a book worth reading.' Hamza Mustafa Njozi, Utafiti Journal
'Dilger combines ethnographic depth with rich theoretical discussion to produce a novel and insightful analysis of the connection between 'the quest for a good life,' education, and religion in a religiously diverse African city, where colonial and post-independence forces have shaped contemporary socio-economic inequalities and other factors influencing the educational sector. He demonstrates what he terms the 'ordinarisation' of value frameworks of the religiously-oriented schools by their students and staff - that is, how the schools' values were learned, discussed, embodied, and expressed in the everyday lives of the pupils and teachers in fluid, non-conscious, and at times intentional manners, as they sought a 'good' life (12) … This text is recommended for students, teachers, researchers, and leaders interested in religion and education, Christian-Muslim relations, and the public role of religion in Tanzania, Africa, and beyond.'
