Paru en 1923, Le Hobo de Nels Anderson est l’une des plus célèbres enquêtes d’ethnologie urbaine qui firent la réputation de l’École de Chicago dans l’entre-deux-guerres. Ouvriers migrants qui se déplaçaient de Chicago vers l’Ouest pour suivre les chantiers, les hobos représentent au tournant du XXe siècle toute une époque de la classe ouvrière américaine. Anderson, lui-même hobo, livre une description précise, vivante et sans misérabilisme de cette vie de débrouille, où chacun use de combines pour faire face aux difficultés. Il décline l’éventail des types de marginalité que produit la pauvreté dans la grande ville. En mêlant observation directe, discussions informelles, biographies et poèmes, il saisit de l’intérieur les modes de vie, l’organisation sociale et les formes de culture de ces nomades. C’est donc à une plongée en Hobohème que nous invite cette réédition. Et à un voyage plus lointain encore, puisque la figure culte de ce vagabond libre a nourri l’imaginaire américain à travers les textes de Kerouac et de London, la chanson folk et ce qui s’apparente à la sous-culture libertaire.

'Green's seminal book treats the relationship between education and the state...As a collective future in Europe takes shape, this timely book raises questions which Britain surely cannot afford to ignore about the aims of a public education system.' Times Educational Supplement Britain was the last major European state to create a national education system and is set to be the first to dismantle it. In this wide-ranging comparative study, Andy Green examines the reasons for the uneven development of public education in England, Prussia, France and the USA and locates the origins of England's educational peculiarities in the voluntary system of the Victorian period.
