Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Training for the Public Profession of the Law, Vol. 15 If organized society is to continue, the great mass of human beings who compose it must be fed and clothed and warmed and transported. In order that these fundamental needs may be met, certain human forces, many of them of world-wide sweep, must be allowed fair play to work in accordance with economic law. In order that these fundamental processes shall go on, it is essential that the general body of individuals in the civilized world shall be educated, at least to the point where they apprehend the presence of the fundamental economic laws, the methods of cooperation under which their economic needs may be met, and their right both to freedom and to justice. Formal education, therefore, has become throughout the civilized world the universal business of society, and next to those fundamental processes by which men are fed and clothed and warmed, the business of education is the chief business of society. In the last twenty years there has been a vast expansion of the machinery of formal education. Not only is the effort made to educate the entire body politic in the elementary knowledge essential to the economic and political safety of the individual, but the institutions of formal education have so expanded as to cover the whole field of human knowledge and of social relations. As a result, the public systems of education in all civilized countries have become enormously complex, in many cases extremely superficial, and in the great majority of cases expensive beyond all expectations. Even in a country so rich and so prosperous as the United States of America, the public school system is to-day in danger of breaking down unless its content shall be brought back once more to a more simple, sincere and thorough basis, and unless this process shall be accompanied by a corresponding reduction in the cost of public education. This growing strain has shown itself in the United States in the past fifteen years in many ways, but perhaps in no more striking way than by the inauguration of a great number of what have been called educational surveys. These surveys, or studies as they may more properly be called, have been carried out in some cases by an individual, in other cases by a group chosen on the basis of assumed expert knowledge.
