The pulse of citizenship : reflections on Griffith Taylor and Nation-Planning

Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
This exercise in a type of applied historiography begins by annotating aspects of reform in Western education from the 1880s to the 1930s, an interval which exhibits the responses of new subjects to political and social demands for improved civics education, and encompasses the inauguration of a recognisably academic geography in Austalia. The discussion extracts a few lessons from Taylor's approach to Nation-Planning to suggest an appropriate orientation to current reformism in Australian education.
