Notes: The author denies the scope of the French school in Togo as an engine of sustainable development as its education systmes are in structural mismatch with the cultural values, the needs and the environment of Togo. He calls for the development of effective and strictly African education polies. (volume 1)

The author argues that the ideology conveyed by the school system in Togo under French mandate focuses on the civilizing mission of France, "rich and powerful" and the debt owed to it by the colonized peoples. This has dug a big gap between school and previous generations. (volume 2)
