Children's Rights, "die Antipadagogen," and the Paternalism of John Stuart Mill.
Nordenbo, Sven Erik
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v31 n4 p163-80 1987
Mill's liberty principle and the children's rights movement ("die Antipadagogen") are discussed in terms of Mill's attitude of paternalism in children's education. Mill contends that the individual liberty of children must be limited for their own good. Proponents of educational liberalism are not justified in claiming Mill as a spokesperson. (TJH)
