Sommario/riassunto |
|
Saito reads Dewey's idea of progressive education through the lens of Emersonian moral perfectionism. She elucidates a spiritual and aesthetic dimension to Dewey's notion of growth, one considerably richer than what Dewey alone presents in his typically scientific terminology. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
The history of unemployment and many concepts surrounding it remain a mystery to many Americans. Frank Stricker believes we need to understand this essential thread in our shared past. 'American Unemployment' is an introduction for everyone that takes aim at misinformation, willful deceptions, and popular myths to set the record straight: Workers do not normally choose to be unemployed. |
