Hartman\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShortly after the Russians launched Sputnik in 1957, Hannah Arendt quipped that \"only in America could a crisis in education actually become a factor in politics.\" The Cold War battle for the American school - dramatized but not initiated by Sputnik - proved Arendt correct. The schools served as a battleground in the ideological conflicts of the 1950s. Beginning with the genealogy of progressive education, and ending with the formation of New Left and New Right thought, Education and the Cold War offers a fresh perspective on the postwar transformation in U.S. political culture by way of an examination of the educational history of that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eANDREW HARTMAN is an Assistant Professor of History at Illinois State University, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 251\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.77 x 9.18 x 6.48 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 14, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53756070166861,"sku":"9780230600102","price":76.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/DB_2YJKDUb9780230600102.webp?v=1776722027","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/education-and-the-cold-war-the-battle-for-the-american-school-hardcover","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
