| Abstract: |
Traces the shifting sentiments of Germans towards U.S. education from the end of the 19th century through the Weimar period. Most German educators admired the U.S. school system because it combined a devotion to freedom and local responsibility with a strong homogenizing and nationalizing power. (MJP) |
