This one-of-a-kind, comprehensive history of moral education in
American schools provides an invaluable historical context for
contemporary debates. McClellan traces American traditions of moral
education from the colonial era to the present, illuminating both
debates about the subject and actual practices in public and
private schools, colleges, and universities. He pays particular
attention to changing fashions in pedagogy, to church-state
conflicts, to the long decline of character training in the
schools, and to recent efforts to restore moral education to its
once-honored place. The book concludes with a thorough examination
of recent theorists, including Lawrence Kohlberg, William J.
Bennett, Carol Gilligan, and Nel Noddings, and an appraisal of
current practice in American schools.
