An "Undeniable" and "Disastrous" Influence? Dewey and English Education (1895-1939).
Brehony, Kevin J.
Oxford Review of Education, v23 n4 p427-45 Dec 1997
Focuses on the educational theories and practices of John Dewey and their reception in England between 1895 and 1939. Adopting Quentin Skinner's approach to the definition of influence, prevailing accounts of Dewey's impact on the English educational system are found to be misleading. Presents an alternative account which minimizes Dewey's role. (DSK)
