This article argues that local discourses are narrowed through globalisation policies and questions whether one can characterise as ‘post‐globalisation’ a state of global and local unification in one capitalist discourse. Further, the article critically engages with such a state of the world, questioning the export of neoliberal western education and development models. Through a case study of a literacy project in Senegal, the article seeks to demonstrate that discourses at local and regional levels are similar to those at international levels, and that a capitalist–development path is widely accepted in many local and traditional societies.
