Abstract

This is a reply to the commentary made by James Urwick on my paper ‘The political economy of investment in education in South Asia’ ( International Journal of Educational Development 4, 155–166).

While some of the points raised by Urwick are obvious and some constitute genuine criticism, a large part of the criticism is misleading.
