Résumé : Elaborates on parallel changes in meaning of the concepts of development and education. After World War II development meant catching up economically with advanced countries by using an exact copy of their educational systems, reinforced by general literacy campaigns. The meaning of development then had many different interpretations: integrated development, non-economic objectives in development; development to meet basic needs; development generated from below; and endogenous development, which soon developed into decentralized local development. At the same time, literacy was becoming basic education, while education was moving towards a diminution of school attendance and towards principles of permanent education. Endogenous development now requires people to be trained in adapting modern techniques to fit into their particular socio-cultural relations.-after English summary
