- W579379718 abstract "This thesis explores the connection between the democratic ideas of FredClarke (1880-1952), an English educationist, and his contribution to educationalreconstruction in England in the 1940s. By drawing on biographical method anddocumentary research, this thesis demonstrates that Clarke's democratic ideasreflected the ideals of liberal democracy and ways in which his ideas informed hispositions on various issues of the educational reform and his actions or activitiestowards them, which constituted his substantial contribution to the reform.Three general themes in this thesis support the main argument. First, Clarke'sideas about the distinction between community and the State, his conception ofequality, and his emphasis on free personality and moral qualities of all citizensfound their roots in the ideals of liberal democracy, especially those ofdevelopmental democracy. Second, Clarke's ideas of democracy underlay hispositions on educational issues such as the reorganization of the central authority;the public schools; the administrative system, selection and organization ofsecondary education; further education; teacher education and the teachingprofession; and adult education. Third, Clarke contributed himself to the reformprimarily through arousing and guiding public opinion by means of his speeches,writings, cooperative actions, engagement in professional organizations, and thepublication of the first report of the Central Advisory Council, School and Life(1947), which were also in accordance with his ideas of democracy. Clarke alsoexerted his influence on cultural elites through discussion groups and onpolicy-makers and key figures through memoranda, private meetings and correspondence.Given these findings, this thesis helps fill a significant gap in the currentknowledge as to Clarke's democratic ideas, his contribution to educationalreconstruction in the 1940s, and above all, the intimate link between them. Moreover,it sheds some light on the nature and tensions of the major educational reform of thisperiod." @default.
