SLAVES NEED NO LEADERS by Walter K. Kotschnig

SLAVES NEED NO LEADERS

By

Pub Date: Nov. 1st, 1942
Publisher: Oxford

The author, formerly general secretary of the International Student Service at Geneva, now a professor at Smith here surveys education between ways throughout the world and outlines what will have to be done after the war. In France, England and the U.S.A. there has been a step towards democratization of education; in Germany, totalitarianism has brought only anti-intellectual, irrational, destructive forces into play; in Russia they are succeeding in correlating education and life. The conquered countries and education under Hitler; post-war reconstruction, problems that must be faced -- these are the subjects of the balance of the book.
