Schools for Industrial Democrats: The Social Origins of John Dewey's Philosophy of Education.
Westbrook, Robert B.
American Journal of Education, v100 n4 p401-19 Aug 1992
Discusses ways in which the conflicts of capital and labor in later nineteenth-century U.S. influences the philosophy of education of J. Dewey.
