In this timely work, Jane Fowler Morse reviews the history of school finance litigation in the United States and then examines recent legal and political struggles to obtain equitable school funding in New York, Vermont, and Ontario. These three places have employed strikingly different strategies to address this issue, and Morse analyzes lessons learned at each that will benefit both public officials and citizens interested in seeking reform elsewhere. Drawing on writers from Aristotle to Cass Sunstein and Martin Luther King Jr., she also explores the concepts of social justice and equity, highlighting the connections between racism, poverty, and school funding. The result is a passionate plea for equitable funding of public education nationwide to instantiate the ideal of "liberty and justice for all."

The tangled affairs in Bavaria at the close of World War I constitute a unique and important part of the early Weimar Republic. This study of the 1918 revolution, based on archival sources such as cabinet protocols and bureaucratic records, traces in detail the overthrow of the Wittelsbach dynasty and the foundation of the Bavarian Republic under Kurt Eisner. It also broadens and balances current understanding of the first Communist attempts to penetrate the heartland of Europe.Originally published in 1965.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Die gymnasiale Oberstufe erfuhr in den letzten Jahrzehnten einen stetigen Zulauf, sodass die Abiturientenquote eines Altersjahrgangs heutzutage etwa 40 Prozent beträgt. Dadurch nimmt die gymnasiale Oberstufe einen immer bedeutenderen Platz im institutionalisierten schulischen Bildungsangebot ein, weswegen eine (erneute) wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit den Bildungszielen und den Wirkungen des Unterrichts in der gymnasialen Oberstufe sinnvoll erscheint.Vor diesem Hintergrund widmet sich dieser Sammelband aus einer fachbezogenen Perspektive dem „Fach Mathematik in der gymnasialen Oberstufe“. Hierzu wird den Fragen nachgegangen, welchen Beitrag das Fach Mathematik für die Trias der Bildungsziele (Vertiefte Allgemeinbildung, Wissenschaftspropädeutik und Studierfähigkeit) leisten kann, welche empirischen Ergebnisse zu mathematikspezifischen Bildungszielen und zum Mathematikunterricht in der gymnasialen Oberstufe vorliegen und wie das Fach Mathematik in der Upper Secondary School in anderen europäischen Ländern gestaltet ist. Abgerundet wird der Sammelband durch drei Diskussionsbeiträge aus unterschiedlichen wissenschaftlichen Perspektiven.
