Abstract
Equatorial Guinea is one of the smallest countries of Africa and the only Spanish speaking nation. Equatorial Guinea pursued the path of most Sub-Saharan nations and it achieved its independence in 1968, followed by a harsh dictatorship that continues until nowadays. However, the destiny of the country changed when oil resources were found in the 1990's and Equatorial Guinea come to be the third largest oil producer of the continent. The recent economic growth has not been reflected in the life standards of most population and only 0.6% of the rising GDP is expended on education. The remarkable inequality, combined with a linguistic isolation under a dictatorship, have an important impact in the development of education and specifically primary education. This thesis aims to understand the situation of primary education in the last ten years in relation with the language imperialism. Moreover, this paper is concern with a remark in the peculiar use of Spanish as an official language and how the use of this language can affect the field of education. |
