Burning and Building - Schooling and State Formation in Japan, 1750-1890

Klappentext This book traces the unfolding of this process in Nagano prefecture and explores how local people negotiated the formation of the new order in their own communities. Zusammenfassung Among the most radical of the Meiji reforms was a plan for a centralized, compulsory educational system modeled after those in Europe and America. But with almost no support from the government, local officials, teachers, and citizens pursued alternative visions. Their efforts led to the growth and consolidation of a new educational system.
