Excerpt from Compulsory Education Progressive portion of the Austrian population, met in an assembly at Vienna, and demanded from the government the perfect freedom of the public schools. Their request was granted; education was relieved from the intolerable burden of priestly interference; the Pope in vain hurled anathema or allocution against the rising intelligence of the people.

Excerpt from Compulsory Education and the Southern States Even in a cursory examination of the subject it will be necessary to sketch the experiences of European countries and American States. Statistics will necessarily occupy a prominent place in such a sketch, as these are essential to an intelligent understanding of this important educational question. These may appear prolix, yet they are the meat of the subject. First, as to European countries: The Germans were the earliest to institute a system of general education, and the wonderful progress of Germany in every respect is now largely attributed to the thoroughness of national education. Especially in the last twenty years has the aspect of the nation been greatly changed. Some attribute this to the large number of special technical schools, which are also undoubtedly potent factors, but some more organic reason in the national life must be discovered. The English consul, Mr. Powell, in an interesting report on these conditions, says that this (commercial and industrial) success is due less to superior commercial education than to the high state of general education that Germany has enjoyed for many years, which was formerly lacking, and is even now lacking in several essential points in Great Britain. The fact that in Germany elementary education has been generally compulsory and, to a large extent, also gratuitous, for more than one hundred and fifty years, is recognized to be an essential element in recent political, industrial and commercial successes of the nation. Nothing short of a general uplifting of the mass of the people will raise a nation to a higher level in all respects.

Excerpt from Compulsory Education and Its Relations to the Defective Classes The recognition of the arbitrary demands of a nation's prosperity, growth and freedom rests with the education and intelligence of its citizenship. It is not charity to educate any child no matter where - no matter what. It is duty, an obligation and a self-preserva tion.

Excerpt from Compulsory Education: Extract From the Report of the Board of Public Charities of the State of Pennsylvania, for 1871 In the report of this Board for 1870, the last topic presented was that of "neglected children." The Legislature was then appealed to, by the highest considerations of the interest and duty of the State, to make provision for their care and education. "The average of social virtue, dignity and wealth," it was then said, "is much reduced by the presence of this debased and debasing ingredient. And it is a problem well worthy of the gravest and most patient thought of philanthropic political economists, whether anything, and (if anything) what can be done for the rescue of these unfortunates from their ill-starred condition, for the protection of the community which they deteriorate, and for the purity, welfare and honor of the State, the mother of them all." This evil exists in all parts of the country, but is most patent and pressing in large cities and crowded communities. The remedy - what it shall be, and how it shall be applied, is a subject beset with grave difficulties; but they are difficulties which must be sooner or later manfully met and grappled with.

Excerpt from Compulsory Education: Prepared for the Public Education Association of Philadelphia, and the Department of Education of the Civic Club of Philadelphia Compulsory education is not a new thing. It finds many advocates and many opponents. Undoubtedly, it is not the highest ideal in education. It is but a means to the end desired. With reason, its Oppon ents urge that the family is the unit of our social fabric; the control of the child is a right inherent in the parent. Yet so long as we have ignorant or selfish parents, we shall have to resort to compulsion: for by its aid only can the child's right to an education be enforced. III our zeal for parental authority, let us not forget the child. Compulsory education has been found necessary in nearly every country of Europe, in several countries of South America, in Japan, and in thirty-one of the United States. The Pennsylvania law is the most recent, having been enacted May 16, 1895. It took effect at once in the State at large, but not in Philadelphia. This fact was due partly to its defective form. The original report of the Civic Club Committee (presented November 21, 1896, by Mrs. Talcott Williams) showed the Objects Of the Pennsylvania law and the difficulties in its enforce ment. Attention was called to the fact that absentees become vagrants or criminals. Another report points out that in Chicago, according to one of its own school reports, out of children not attending school, in 1891-1892, more than three-fourths were notorious loafers and idlers, who could not be forced into the schools and who furnished recruits for reform schools and penitentiaries.

With over 70,000 copies of the first edition in print, this radical treatise on public education has been a New Society Publishers’ bestseller for 10 years! Thirty years in New York City’s public schools led John Gatto to the sad conclusion that compulsory schooling does little but teach young people to follow orders like cogs in an industrial machine. This second edition describes the wide-spread impact of the book and Gatto’s "guerrilla teaching." John Gatto has been a teacher for 30 years and is a recipient of the New York State Teacher of the Year award. His other titles include A Different Kind of Teacher (Berkeley Hills Books, 2001) and The Underground History of American Education (Oxford Village Press, 2000).
Excerpt from The History of Compulsory Education in New England: A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Arts, Literature, and Science of the University of Chicago, in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Besides the establishment of schools, he urged the formation of libraries. Finally, he says, it is well for all those, who have so much love and desire, that schools and studies be established, and sustained in Germany, to keep in mind that we must spare no trouble nor expense to furnish good libraries, especially in great cities, where such are possible. For if the Gospel and all the arts are to remain, they must indeed be enclosed and bound up in books and writings. T These libraries were not to include the writings of the school-men and the church fathers merely, but also the works of every great writer, whether pagan or Christian.
