| Abstract | Literacy is being given increased attention in most developed countries where economic thinking focuses on the assets that could be unlocked from human capital. Within the OECD the discourse within literacy has concerned itself almost exclusively on labour market issues whereas scholarly research on literacy addresses a much wider array of social as well as educational contexts. Under alternative policies inspired by principles and understandings of social capital there would be emphasis on the community based settings, the networks of relationships and social cohesion in which learning takes place and in which what is learned is practised.A range of contexts for the advocacy of literacy policies is explored from which are identified three broad justifications from three mutually reinforcing broad social changes. These relate to the impact of changing economic patterns in the wake of trade liberalisation and the post-industrial services and economy; the impact of cultural diversity and participatory ideals of society; and the impact of communications technology.The particular position of Scotland is explored in the context of a recent report on Adult Literacy and numeracy in that country. |
