Publisher's Synopsis
The Worker and the State: A Study of Education for Industrial Workers is a book written by Arthur Davis Dean in 1910. It is a comprehensive study of the education system for industrial workers in the United States during the early 20th century. The book explores the relationship between workers and the state and how education played a vital role in shaping the attitudes and behaviors of workers towards their employers and the government. Dean argues that education for industrial workers should not only focus on vocational skills but also on civic education and social responsibility. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the historical background of industrial education and the role of the state in providing education to workers. The second part examines the different types of industrial education programs and their effectiveness in preparing workers for the industrial workforce. The third part focuses on the social and political implications of industrial education and how it can be used to promote social and economic progress.Overall, The Worker and the State is a seminal work in the field of industrial education and provides a valuable insight into the history and development of the education system for industrial workers in the United States.
