This book explores the development of education in France and
England from the French Revolution to the outbreak of World War II.
The author uses social equality as a framework to compare and
contrast the educational systems of both countries and to emphasise
the distinctive ideological legacies at the heart of both systems.
The author analyses how the French Revolution prompted the
emergence of an egalitarian ideology in education that in turn was
crucial for propagating the values of equality, patriotism and
unity. In tandem, the volume discusses the equally dramatic
consequences of the Industrial Revolution for English society:
while England led the world by 1800 in trade, commerce and
industry, a strict form of liberalism and minimal state
intervention impeded the reduction of educational inequality. This
pioneering book will be of interest to students and scholars of
educational equality as well as the history of education in France
and England.
