"The Center Cannot Hold." Educational Politics and the Collapse of the Democratic Middle in Germany: The School Bill Crisis in Baden, 1927-1928.

Fritz, Stephen G.

History of Education Quarterly, v25 n4 p413-37 Win 1985

Worsened Catholic-liberal relations contributed to a split in the bourgeois middle, making political cooperation more difficult and hindering a moderate evolution of the Weimar state. (RM)
