- 요약This dissertation explores the links between education, language, and social class in Dakar, Senegal. It is based on 16 months of ethnographic field research in two private bilingual schools - a lower-fee French-Arabic ecole franco-arabe and a higher-fee French-English ecole bilingue. Drawing on theories of decoloniality, language ideologies, sociocultural (re)production, and aspiration frameworks, it traces the ways in which colonization, ongoing structures of coloniality, and globalization informed narratives about the purposes of education and the ways in which different languages are used and valued across the two focal schools. It also examines how larger societal views of these different types of educations and languages shaped the ways in which students imagined their own social positionings and futures within and across local, national, transnational, and global spaces.It argues that education is an institution onto which students project their hopes, aspirations, and desires, but that the ability of students to realize their aspirations in tangible ways is stratified across language and social class. The findings illustrate the ways in which different languages are linked to different forms and understandings of education, knowledge, and success. Arabic is understood as a language for religious pursuits, providing prestige in Islamic spaces in Senegal as well as in the larger Muslim, Arabic-speaking world. French is the language of the secular in Senegal, linked to Western-centric education and knowledge that in the past provided clear pathways to social and economic success. The concomitant shrinking of public employment opportunities and the rise of "global" English has seen the spread of private, English bilingual education which, though highly sought after, remains accessible primarily only to a small, well-off group. While this project examines schooling in Senegal, it speaks to larger concerns around the world about youth futures and the role of education as both empowering and disillusioning.
