If we were to rely on what the pundits and politicians tell us, we would have to conclude that America is a deeply conservative nation. Americans, we hear constantly, detest government, demand lower taxes and the end of welfare, and favor the death penalty, prayer in school, and an absolute faith in the free market. And yet Americans believe deeply in progressive ideas. In fact, progressivism has long been a powerful force in the American psyche. Consider that a mere generation ago the struggle for environmentally sound policies, for women's rights, and for racial equality were fringe movement

American ideals—liberty, equality, democracy, national unity—are bandied about by liberal politicians as a package deal, inseparably intertwined. But the words often flow together better as rhetoric than they mold together in theory. But, as Herbert Croly and his turnofthecentury contemporaries found, jelling these appealing yet often conflicting concepts into a liberal philosophy was not nearly as easy as embracing them in a campaign speech. In this first fulllength study of Herbert Croly's political theory, Edward Stettner analyzes Croly's writings and examines the events, experiences, and people who influenced Croly's thinking. In the process, he reveals Croly's significant influence on modern liberalism as classical liberal theory merged with progressive philosophy. Croly, founder of The New Republic, expounded on issues from the nationalization of railroads to the Espionage Act in his search for a middle way between socialism and capitalism. Stettner illustrates how Croly's political theory influenced the editorial position of one of the leading liberal journals and how his thought in turn was modified in reaction to national and world events, such as presidential elections and World War I. Stettner portrays Croly as a modest and conscientious intellectual who wholeheartedly came to embrace the progressive movement and consequently helped establish the framework for modern liberalism. In doing so, Stettner emphasizes how Croly's philosophy evolved and how Croly was drawn to the conclusion that a strong national government and individual rights could indeed coexist—if not always serenely—in a democratic society.

Les années 1890-1930 constituent une période charnière dans l’élaboration de nouveaux modèles professionnels dans l’enseignement aux États-Unis. Soucieux de mener des réformes jugées favorables au progrès de la société, divers acteurs entreprennent de modifier le système de formation des enseignants, les méthodes pédagogiques et l’organisation des systèmes scolaires. Chicago est alors un des principaux centres de réflexion de ces projets progressistes de professionnalisation de l’enseignement. Cet ouvrage propose une étude historique de ces transformations à partir d’un échantillon élargi et inédit d’acteurs, d’institutions et de sources. Quel rôle les enseignants, les directeurs d’école ou le personnel de l’École normale de Chicago eurent-ils dans l’élaboration et la dissémination de nouveaux modèles professionnels ? Dans quelle mesure ces modèles furent-ils mis en pratique quotidiennement dans les établissements ? Quels furent effectivement l’envergure et le contenu de cette conquête professionnelle ? Cette étude de cas apporte un point de vue complémentaire sur l’histoire de l’éducation nord-américaine, du progressisme et de Chicago, et aborde des thématiques qui font écho aux réflexions contemporaines sur l’enseignement, le genre ou les relations raciales. The 1890s to 1940s were a pivotal era in the development of a professionalised approach to teaching in the United States. Reforms that were seen as beneficial to society were led by a variety of actors who sought to change how teachers were trained, the teaching methods used, and how school systems were organised. Chicago was a leading centre of reflection in these progressive projects aimed at professionalising teaching. This book offers a historical study of these transformations based on a large and unprecedented sample of actors, institutions and sources. What role did teachers, principals and staff at the Chicago Normal School play in shaping and promoting new professional paradigms? To what extent were…

Auf der Grundlage von elf bildungshistorischen und schulpädagogischen Quellenstudien wird ein Struktur- und Handlungsmodell gelingender Schulreformprozesse entwickelt. Die Studien analysieren fallorientiert und quellengestützt die Reformpraxen an historischen Reformschulen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Bezugspunkt ist dabei jeweils die Einzelschule als pädagogische Handlungseinheit. Die Studien sind historisch-empirisch fundiert und geben vertiefte Einblicke in historische Schul(reform)praxis. Fokussiert werden mit dem Terminus Gelingensbedingungen organisationale Strukturen und pädagogische Handlungsmuster innerhalb der historischen Reformprozesse. Die Befunde leiten sich aus der Eigenlogik pädagogisch-praktischer Reformprozesse ab. Es sind Strukturen und Handlungsmuster, die von den pädagogischen Akteur*innen im sozialen Prozess selbst entwickelt wurden. Der Ertrag der bildungshistorischen Quellenstudien bündelt sich in einem Modell wiederkehrender pädagogisch-professioneller Handlungs- und Strukturmuster. Diese historisch-empirisch entwickelte "Fünf-plus-zwei-K-Struktur gelingender Schulreformprozesse" wurde an 100 gegenwärtigen Reformschulen überprüft und konnte im Ergebnis in einem Zeitraum von rund einhundert Jahren als wiederkehrend validiert werden. Entstanden im Prozess professionellen pädagogischen Handelns, gestaltet durch professionelles pädagogisches Handeln und Interaktion und ausdifferenziert für professionelles pädagogisches Handeln folgt das Fünf-plus-zwei-K-Strukturmodell der Eigenlogik pädagogischer Prozesse in der Schule. Es ist anschlussfähig, weil es primär pädagogisch konstituiert ist und sich nah bei den Akteur*innen befindet. Das Modell ist somit ein bildungshistorischer Beitrag zu einer Theorie von Schulreformprozessen und trägt zum pädagogischen Verständnis von Schulentwicklungsprozessen bei. This work presents a structural and operative model of successful processes of school reform, based on eleven source-based studies on the history of educational and school-based pedagogy. Oriented on real-world cases and sources, these studies analyse the reform practices of historical reform schools during the twentieth century. The point of reference in each case is the individual school as a pedagogical unit of action. The studies are historically and empirically grounded and provide in-depth insights into the historical practices of schools as well as historical school reforms. The term "conditions for success" is employed here to focus on organisational structures and pedagogical patterns of action within historical processes of reform. The findings are derived from the inherent logic of practical pedagogical processes of reform. These are structures and patterns of action developed by the pedagogical professionals themselves through social processes. The results of the educational-historical source studies are collated here in a model of recurring professional patterns of pedagogical action and structure. The resulting historically and empirically developed "Five-plus-two-K Structure of Successful School Reform Processes" was tested on 100 modern day reform schools and it could be shown that these processes recur over a period of about one hundred years. Following the inherent logic of pedagogical processes in schools, the "Five-plus-two-K Structure of Successful School Reform Processes" was developed through a process of professional pedagogical action, shaped by professional pedagogical action and interaction, and was differentiated for professional pedagogical action. This model is integrative on the basis that it is primarily pedagogically constituted and was closely developed with educational professionals. The model is thus an educational-historical contribution to a theory of school reform processes and contributes to the pedagogical understanding of the processes of school development.

This is a provocative reconsideration of the intellectual origins of Progressivism as it developed from 1885 to the eve of World War I. Eldon Eisenach argues that the Progressives are far more important for our understanding of American culture than we've been led to believe and that they, in fact, established and shaped our most influential institutions - governmental, cultural, educational, religious, professional, economic, and journalistic - as we know them today. Eisenach contends that, despite its demise as a galvanizing force in national party politics, Progressive thought remains a powerful influence in contemporary America. In particular, he shows how Progressive ideas resonate with current debates over individual rights and civic responsibilities, the relationship between the government and the economy, and America's international reputation.
