Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins and evolution of American public schools, tracing their development from their origins in religious instruction to the more comprehensive and secular system we know today. The author argues that the American school system has been shaped by a unique blend of democratic ideals and influences from other cultures, notably the Prussian Volksschule, which was imported into the US in the mid-19th century. The book examines the impact of this importation on the development of American schools, highlighting both its positive and negative consequences. The author contends that while the Prussian model provided a much-needed framework for organizing and standardizing the American school system, it also introduced a degree of rigidity and social stratification that has persisted to this day. Ultimately, the book argues for a more equitable and democratic approach to education that builds on the strengths of the American system while rejecting its more exclusionary elements.
