About this title

Synopsis

Explores the role of primary education in nation building in a region that moved back and forth between French and German control four times between 1871 and 1945, demonstrating that both countries used similar methods involving the teaching of language, culture, geography, and history to transform ordinary people's local and religious identities into national ones. Material provides a historical perspective for discussions about the role of education in meeting challenges of linguistic diversity and national culture in the late 20th century.
