Is It Time to Let Meritocracy Go?: Examining the Case of Singapore
---
Nadira Talib
Although Singapore is often touted as a shining example of a meritocracy in practice, the author poses some fundamental questions, looking particularly at the experience of the Malay community in education. Government statistics from 1987 to 2011 show the community to be at the bottom of the academic achievement scale in the city state. The author seeks to demonstrate how the education system there contributes to this situation. New Hardback. First Edition. 211 pages with an index.
