Abstract
In this essay Edward Berman explores the way in which the relationship between United States foreign policy and the major American foundations has helped to shape African educational policy since 1945. Berman contends that the foundations, in particular Ford, Rockefeller, and the Carnegie Corporation, have directed their support at areas of political or economic importance to American corporate interests—to the possible detriment of the needs of the developing nations themselves.Keywords
