The pastoral home school: rural vernacular, and grassroots literacies in early socialist Mongolia -- How to think like a socialist: official representations of literacy in socialist Mongolia -- Literacy under authority: the young pioneers and the cultural campaigns -- Sponsorship and the official center of post-socialist literacy -- Post-socialist English and national language ideologies -- Urban linguistic landscapes and post-socialist public audiences.
This book argues that literacy functions as a means of tracking social change in modern Mongolia. Its leaders have used literacy to promote new ways of living and socialist identities. In post-socialist Mongolia, literacy expresses the anxieties that Mongolians feel as they navigate globalism and express conflicting identities.
