Adult Literacy and the Poor Farming People.
Mathur, J. C.
Literacy Discussion, v9 n2 p11,13-21 Sum 1978
In discussing Rafe-uz-Zaman's essay on adult literacy and national development (see v9, n1 of this journal), the author cites examples to support his thesis that mass literacy campaigns in predominately agricultural countries can be successful only if there is simultaneous undertaking of economic development programs focused on the rural poor.
