目前对民主的挑战，其力量部分来自于教育为法西斯国家的目的服务的方式。尽管公民教育协会去年出版了一本令人钦佩的关于“教育中的偏见”的小册子，其中指出，在某些地区，教育倾向不过是一种使个人适应对其自由的某种限制的手段，这种趋势的危险已经意识到了，但那些相信民主的人却一直没有意识到，民主教育与法西斯教育是完全不同的。本书是一次令人钦佩的尝试，它阐述了教育在英国民主中的作用，23位作者的参与，丝毫没有妨碍对有意规划我们的教育制度的可能性进行一致而令人信服的阐述，以事实而不是政治为基础，为民主的目的服务。《民主教育》由j·i·科恩r·m·w·特拉弗斯策划和编辑。Pp. xxx + 458。（伦敦：麦克米伦有限公司，1939）十年代。6 d。网。
THE challenge to democracy at the present time derives part of its strength from the way in which education has been made to serve the purposes of the Fascist State. Those who believe in democracy have, however, been slow to realize that education for democracy is something quite different from education for Fascism, though an admirable pamphlet on “Bias in Education” issued last year by the Association for Education in Citizenship indicates that the danger of the tendency for education to become little more than a means of adjusting the individual to certain restraints on his or her liberty is already realized in some quarters. The present book is an admirable attempt to state the function of education in English democracy, and the participation of twenty-three authors has in no way prevented the presentation of a consistent and convincing exposition of the possibilities of deliberately planning our educational system to serve the purposes of democracy on a factual rather than a political basis.Educating for DemocracyPlanned and edited by J.
