Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Education of the American Citizen IN many of the political writings of the day, there is a tendency to lay too much stress on the mechanism of government and of industry, and too little stress on the force by which this mechanism is kept at work. In recent educational movements, also, too much thought is perhaps given to the problem of preparing men and women to take their several places in a social machine, and too little to the development of that power and spirit upon which the perpetuation of our whole social order depends. From my public addresses and magazine articles of the past few years, I have tried to select those which emphasize the more neglected side of these questions, and to arrange them in a continuous series. In a book thus prepared, it is inevitable that there should be some repe tition and some apparent inconsistencies. If the reader is perplexed by any of these things, he will perhaps find the explanation in the date of the different utterances and the special conditions under which they were made public.

This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Education of an American Citizen The purpose of this series of loosely con nected chapters is to call attention to some of the influences which direct, and some of the qualities which mark, the religious education of an American citizen. The normal life of an American proceeds from childhood to youth and from youth to manhood, through the shift ing environments of home, school, college, busi ness, citizenship and Church; and at each step he is met by conditions and demands which may either promote or obstruct his religious educa tion. What, then, are the circumstances which are likely to be most favorable for a healthy minded and progressive religious experience? What can be done by parents, teachers, em ployers, statesmen, or pastors, to reinforce American citizenship with a rational religious life? What are the special obstacles which American civilization offers to religious prog ress? What are the traits of the American character on which teachers of religion may most confidently depend?

Download or read book American Citizenship (Classic Reprint) written by Charles A. Beard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Citizenship In view of the large number of textbooks on civics already available, some very decided reasons should be forthcoming from those who venture to add another one to the long list. Our first plea in justification of this volume is our belief that the books on government now offered to the schools have certain fundamental defects. An examination of the extensive collection of texts in the Library of Congress, which embraces all of the most recent books on civics, shows that they fall into two groups: those which are formal and legal, and those which are "sociological," in character. The authors of the first group err, in our opinion, in treating government as a multitude of rules already well settled which, when committed to memory, are calculated to make good and wise citizens. The authors of the second group, it seems to us, in their revolt against the mechanistic theory of government, err just as much in minimizing those concrete political and administrative processes by which social work of a public character is accomplished and in emphasizing in civics private activities which are remote from official operations. For example, the principle of the separation of governmental powers, so scorned by the sociological school, is in fact more important, as we try to show, than half of the beneficent enterprises undertaken in the name of modern collectivism. And both groups of books are equally in error in so far as they seem to regard civic life as static or settled rather than dynamic and progressive.

We are coming to see as never before the unity of all human relations. The business of government is not an isolated thing, nor is it a fixed and finished scheme. It is constantly changing and growing, like a live thing. It has a beginning in the family and home; it touches every neighborly relation; it is con cerned with the uses, the getting, spending, saving, and holding of money, and the rightful distribution of property.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Course in American Citizenship in the Grades: For the Public Schools of Iowa The Thirty-Eighth General Assembly passed an act providing for the teaching of American Citizenship in the public and private schools located in the State of Iowa, and providing for an outline for such subjects. In accordance with this act a brief outline was prepared soon after the law was enacted and mailed to all the schools as a guide for the work which was to be done. Then plans were made and a committee was appointed to hold conferences and later select a smaller committee to write the course of study. This outline is the result of the work of that committee and has been officially approved by the Department of Public Instruction and is now the official outline for the course in American Citizenship for the public and private schools in the State of Iowa. It is expected that every County Superintendent in the State will devote some time in the next teachers' institutes to giving the teachers instruction upon this course and explaining the methods by which the best results may be secured. I sincerely hope that this outline may be of much help to the pupils, teachers, parents, and boards of education and that it may result in making better qualified citizens in the State of Iowa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Education and American Citizenship: An Address Delivered Before the Associated Alumni of the University of Rochester The statements I have already made are intended simply to emphasize what perhaps may need no special emphasis that education cannot, in any proper sense, be regarded as an end in itself, but that its value and efficiency depend up on an appreciation of the dignity and demands of human life. But may it not be pertinent to go a step farther and ask, What is that conception of life which should be kept in view in our educational systems? What, in short, is the real significance of human life - what is life for? One of the greatest achievements of modern science is generally conceded to be the discovery of the law of evolution. One of the factors of this law relates to the theory of lifewherein life is regarded as a universal struggle for exist ence. As this theory is generally interpreted, those individ nals which are best fitted by virtue of superior strength or intelligence, survive; while the weak and less intelligent go to the wall. Life is looked upon as a battle for survivor ship and supremacy. And this is supposed to apply not only to the lower animals, but to man as well; and is often emphasized as a stimulant to education. Success in life is looked upon as a victory in the battle of life. To achieve success one must possess the power and the intelligence necessary to triumph over others. If he has not received by nature the requisite amount of strength and skill, he must cultivate and develop it by artificial means. In this way he may obtain an advantage in the inevitable struggle; in this way he may acquire personal power and supremacy, and thus reduce others to a relative condition of subordina tion. It is by his superior knowledge and mental discipline obtained by education, that he may acquire those qualities which will enable him to outwit his fellow men, and will ensure his preeminence in the world and hence his success in life. This is the egoi'stic theory of life and education a theory which is based upon the hypothesis that the life of man, like the life of the brute, is a competitive struggle for existence and individual supremacy. So far as this theory is accepted and adopted as a principle of action, it begets the spirit of self-aggrandizement, of personal ambi tion, of excessive individualism, of antagonism of man against man. It ignores the social instincts of human na ture, and enthrones selfishness as the ruling principle of human conduct. It perverts and poisons the spirit of in dustrial enterprise, and leads to the exploitation of the weak by the strong. It infects and corrupts the political life of the nation, by debasing its legitimate institutions for the advancement of selfish ends - making of the ballotan instrument of bribery, of parties the means of acquiring personal power and mastery, and of our legislative halls a field for individual and corporate plunder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Citizen: His Rights and Duties, According to the Spirit of the Constitution of the United States Being thus satisfied that there was no real propriety in declin ing the enterprise proposed, 'on the mere ground of professional objection, the only difficulty which remained was the personal doubt, whether I could hope to execute it acceptably. True, indeed, it was, that it might be better done by others. But this could hardly be admitted as a valid excuse, because it would Ope rate equally against every human undertaking All that I had a right to assume was the necessity of possessing a competent share of, the knowledge, reflection, and experience which the work required. The first thirty years of life passed in the stud ies, business, and intercourse of the world - seven of those years given to the profession of the law - Sixteen years devoted to the task of education - the training of a numerous family - abun dant Opportunities of intimacy, abroad and at home, with all the classes of society, and the whole united, from my youth up, with the constant love of books, and the peculiar tastes and habits of an author - all this seemed to warrant the hope that I might produce a work of some utility on the rights and duties of the American citizen, Without any serious diminution of the labors due to the paramount service of the Gospel. 'at all events, I could not honestly deny that I ought to be tolerably qualified to make the effort, with a fair promise of success; and therefore I concluded\that the attempt would not be justly liable to the charge of inconsistency or presumption.
