| Resumo: | In advanced capitalist countries education prepares children to live in a complex world. Schooling teaches them subordination and the skills they will need for menial jobs. Education is for the children of the rich, schooling for the children of the poor. Malaysian schooling has other “covert curricula,” e.g., Islamicization.

This paper attempts to document these processes and their results, with some suggestions for alternative forms of education. |
