Brougham, Hegel, and American educational reformers: European middle class ideology and its relationship to American educational reform, 1826 to 1883

Abstract

dc:description

The main purpose of this thesis is to better determine the ideological foundation of American educational reform from the beginning of the Common School Era to the dawn of the Progressive Era. By understanding the relationship that existed between certain European middle class social theorists and American middle class educational reformers from 1826 to 1883, one is able to gain a great deal of additional insight into the root cause of educational inequality in the United States.
