Robert Owen, William Maclure and New Harmony.
Mclaren, David J.
History of Education, v25 n3 p223-33 Sep 1996
Discusses the utopian philosophy and related educational practices of the early 19th-century communitarian settlement in New Harmony, Indiana. The settlement failed after several years, due in no small part to the falling out between its two main supporters, Robert Owen and William Maclure. (MJP)
