School Acts and the Rise of Mass Schooling “In this remarkable volume, the editors present thirteen national case studies of the origins and outcomes of school acts that were passed during the construction of public school systems in the long nineteenth century. The chapter authors are leading scholars in the history of education who demonstrate both the distinctive process of school formation in different countries and the parallel processes and shared conceptions that shaped the process. Not only does the book allow us to understand the emergence of mass schooling in comparative context, but it also fosters an understanding that incorporates both the political and social histories of schooling.” —David F. Labaree, Professor Emeritus, Stanford University School of Education, USA “A welcome and timely addition to our historical understanding of the interactions between school legislation and the emergence of modern school systems. Methodologically innovative in their use of new social, cultural and economic approaches, the authors of the different case studies challenge the reader to think comparatively and analytically about the acts, concepts and processes that underlay the rise of mass schooling in the West.” —Rebecca E. Rogers, Professor in the History of Education, Université Paris Descartes, France
