Hadingham, Oliver – Paedagogica Historica: International Journal of the History of Education, 2022
The two-volume novel "Sinister Street" by Compton Mackenzie (1883-1972), a Scottish writer more famous now for his later comic novels, tends to be overlooked in the list of novels depicting English public school life.

Glaser, Clive – Paedagogica Historica: International Journal of the History of Education, 2021
The Bantu Education system, which replaced missionary-run black schooling in the mid-1950s, expanded schooling to accommodate the basic economic needs of the South African economy but it was done as cheaply as possible. The state paid teachers' salaries and in return it expected obedience and conformity from its employees. It was a tight-fisted,…

The nature of the New Policies in China (1901-1911) has been hotly debated for decades. While scholars doubt the sincerity of the Qing government in their pursuit of constitutional reform, there is a general agreement on the high quality of their educational reform. Some even consider their educational innovations as "genuine reform" but…

Göttlicher, Wilfried – Paedagogica Historica: International Journal of the History of Education, 2020
This article examines the ambiguous perception of rural space as a natural space in the debates on rural school reform in Austria from the 1920s up to the 1960s.

Giudici, Anja; Ruoss, Thomas – Paedagogica Historica: International Journal of the History of Education, 2020
Despite its image as an antifascist stronghold, interwar-Switzerland hosted several fascist movements.
