Book Synopsis State, Society, and the Elementary School in Imperial Germany by : Marjorie Lamberti
Download or read book State, Society, and the Elementary School in Imperial Germany written by Marjorie Lamberti and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1989-10-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The much admired school system of 19th-century Germany served as a model for the educational systems of many other countries, including Britain and the United States. In this illuminating study of German primary schools, Lamberti examines an educational tradition that was the object of wide emulation, but which was often misinterpreted by its admirers. Lamberti also explores the political significance of German educational policies in the Kulturkampf, in the suppression of Polish nationalism in the eastern provinces, and more generally in the struggle between the competing strands of liberalism and authoritarianism in the German state.
Book Synopsis Urban Liberalism in Imperial Germany by : Jan Palmowski
Download or read book Urban Liberalism in Imperial Germany written by Jan Palmowski and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1999-05-13 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debates about Liberalism in imperial Germany have focused almost exclusively on the national level. This book investigates liberal politics in local government; the only sphere in which liberals had direct access to power throughout Germany. Through the study of one of Germany's most progressive cities, Frankfurt am Main, Jan Palmowski examines more generally the processes of politicization and policy formulation at the local level. He argues that in Frankfurt as elsewhere, local affairs had become politicized not around 1900, as is generally assumed, but by the 1870s. Once in power, the liberals' concern for religion, social policy, and education, as well as their skilful use of fiscal policy shows that liberals in Germany were as sophisticated as liberals in Britain or France. Even in the face of an authoritarian state structure, German liberals received and made use of freedom for renewal and reform. German liberalism was not inherently weak. Instead, the crucial problem lay in the country's complicated federal structure, which made it impossible to transfer innovations from the local level to the state and national levels.
Book Synopsis Students, Society and Politics in Imperial Germany by : Konrad H. Jarausch
Download or read book Students, Society and Politics in Imperial Germany written by Konrad H. Jarausch and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Konrad H. Jarausch studies the social structure of the German university and the mentality of its students during the Imperial period as an example of a wider European academic desertion of liberalism. He finds that German higher education combined scientific world leadership and competent professional training with an eroding liberal education (Bildung) to create an educated class that was tragically susceptible to the appeal of the Third Reich.

This book was released on 2008-11 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GERMAN SCHOOLS THE HISTORY, ORGANIZATION AND METHODS of SECONDARY EDUCATION IN GERMANY BY JAMBS E. RUSSELL, PREFACE No apology is necessary, I assume, in presenting to the reading public a book on the secondary schools of Germany. For many years American educators have drawn professional inspiration from German sources, and more recently it has become apparent that German ideas are taking root in British soil. The history, organization and methods of the German elementary schools are generally well understood. We have grown familiar with the German universities and have prof ited not a little from the relationship. But very little has been written in English on the secondary education which is the foundation of the German xtniversity training and the basis of all professional service in the Fatherland. Yet it is precisely in this sphere that German education can be studied to boat advantage, and from it wo have most to learn. The Regents of the University of the State of New York, at Convocation in July, 1893, appointed me their European Commissioner, and shortly afterwards I was made Special Agent of the Bureau of Education of the United States for the study and investigation of German schools. These keys unlocked all doors. During the two years which I spent in Germany I visited more than forty towns and cities in order personally to acquaint myself with school affairs. By force of circumstances my attention was directed chiefly to the schools of central and northern Germany. It happens, there fore, that this study is concerned principally with the schools vi PEEFAOB of Prussia. But as Prussia is the larger part of the Empire both in area and population, and by far the most importantstate politically in the Confederation, it is doing no great in justice to consider German schools from the Prussian stand point. A foreign institution, however simple it appears to the casual observer, presents a wonderful complexity to the stu dent. And the longer ho studies the moro complex it grows. After a six months residence abroad I was more confident of my ability to interpret the German school system thnn I urn now, at the end of almost five years continuous study and investigation. No one of my readers, I am sure, oun bo moro dissatisfied than I am myself with this attempt to portray Gorman ideals and German methods. The subject is too im portant to be lightly treated and too extensive to bo under stood on short acquaintance. I trust, however, that my work may lighten the labours of other students iu this field and prove to be of some practical worth to educators. Sermonizing on the basis of foreign customs is always of doubtful expediency. It is, indeed, questionable whether there is anything peculiar to the German theory and practice of teaching which is directly applicable to British or Amer ican conditions. Each nation must educate itself in its own way and for its own 0,1 uU The chief value of foreign exam ples consists in a rational understanding of the foreign way of adapting means to ends iu the realization of groat idoals. In this work, therefore, I luivo studiouHly resiwtod the temptation to point out the moral of every talo. The intelligent reader is capable of drawing his own conclusions he who reads merely to imitate noods no encouragement. It has been my aim to make each chapter as complete in it- self as possible, oven at the risk of some repetition of important facts, llof orences have boon cited iu foot-notes whorovor it has seemed necessary to refer to original documents or uu PREFAOB vii thorities of consequence. At the end of each chapter I have appended a short bibliographical list, through which students may easily acquaint themselves with the literature of the various topics...

Book Synopsis Learning Democracy by : Brian M. Puaca

Book excerpt: Scholarship on the history of West Germany's educational system has traditionally portrayed the postwar period of Allied occupation as a failure and the following decades as a time of pedagogical stagnation. Two decades after World War II, however, the Federal Republic had become a stable democracy, a member of NATO, and a close ally of the West. Had the schools really failed to contribute to this remarkable transformation of German society and political culture? This study persuasively argues that long before the protest movements of the late 1960s, the West German educational system was undergoing meaningful reform from within. Although politicians and intellectual elites paid little attention to education after 1945, administrators, teachers, and pupils initiated significant changes in schools at the local level. The work of these actors resulted in an array of democratic reforms that signaled a departure from the authoritarian and nationalistic legacies of the past. The establishment of exchange programs between the United States and West Germany, the formation of student government organizations and student newspapers, the publication of revised history and civics textbooks, the expansion of teacher training programs, and the creation of a Social Studies curriculum all contributed to the advent of a new German educational system following World War II. The subtle, incremental reforms inaugurated during the first two postwar decades prepared a new generation of young Germans for their responsibilities as citizens of a democratic state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German Empire was founded in January 1871 not only on the basis of Chancellor Otto von Bismarck's 'blood and iron' policy but also with the support of liberal nationalists. Under Bismarck and Kaiser Wilhelm II, Germany became the dynamo of Europe. Its economic and military power were pre-eminent; its science and technology, education, and municipal administration were the envy of the world; and its avant-garde artists reflected the ferment in European culture. But Germany also played a decisive role in tipping Europe's fragile balance of power over the brink and into the cataclysm of the First World War, eventually leading to the empire's collapse in military defeat and revolution in November 1918. With contributions from an international team of twelve experts in the field, this volume offers an ideal introduction to this crucial era, taking care to situate Imperial Germany in the larger sweep of modern German history, without suggesting that Nazism or the Holocaust were inevitable endpoints to the developments charted here.
