Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - INTRODUCTION -- Education and the State is a comprehensive indictment of public education or, more precisely, a powerful repudiation of the idea that education should be a government service funded by tax revenues. Even proponents of public education are likely to agree that West?s rigorous analysis invites a radical rethinking of the rationale that underlies the creation of state-run education and calls for the continuation of government schools in the United Kingdom and the United States. At bottom, this book raises the fundamental question of whether the education of our youth is a proper function of government. Education and the State argues persuasively that, except for the truly indigent, government financial support for education is neither essential nor desirable. -- In debunking the myths of public education, West challenges the false assumptions upon which it was originally established tn the last century. He demonstrates the fallacies in the claim that government schools were needed to protect minors. He also thoroughly discredits the so-called ?neighborhood effects? argument, which held that government schools were necessary to reduce crime, increase equality of educational opportunity, inculcate the common values of a democratic society, and achieve economic growth.

Education and the State first appeared in 1965 and was immediately hailed as one of the century's most important works on education. In the thirty years that have followed, the questions this book raised concerning state-run education have grown immeasurably in urgency and intensity.

In the thirty years that have followed, the questions this book raised concerning state-run education have grown immeasurably in urgency and intensity. Education and the State re-examines the role of government in education and challenges the fundamental statist assumption that the state is best able to provide an education for the general population. West explores the views on education of the nineteenth-century British reformers and classical economists who argued the necessity of state education. He demonstrates that by the Foster Act of 1870 the state system of education was superimposed upon successful private efforts, thereby suppressing an emerging and increasingly robust structure of private, voluntary, and competitive education funded by families, churches, and philanthropies. This new and expanded edition of Education and the State addresses the American situation in education, applying the lessons learned from the study of British institutions. It also broadens their application from education to the conduct of democracy as a political system.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 25x140x210 mm;Gewicht: 554,00 gram;Geschikt voor: 18 - 10 jaar;Verschijningsdatum: januari 1994;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 0865971358;ISBN13: 9780865971356; Engelstalig | Paperback | 1994.
