FreshEd #384 – Why did mass education rise and spread? (Agustina S. Paglayan)

Today we explore the history of modern mass schooling. My guest, Agustina Paglayan, argues in her new book that schooling was originally a strategy for state-building through indoctrination. Agustina Paglayan is a political science and public policy professor at the University of California, San Diego, and a nonresident fellow at the Center for Global Development. Her new book is “Raised to Obey: The rise and spread of Mass Education," which was published by Princeton University Press. freshedpodcast.com/Paglayan/ -- Get in touch!
