WiSe 18/19: Educating Modern Americans. Religion, Human Capital and Social (Im)Mobility

Martin Lutz

Kommentar

In its landmark decision Wisconsin vs. Yoder in 1972, the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Amish respondent against the State of Wisconsin and guaranteed Amish exemption from compulsory school education beyond the eight grade. The court thus established that freedom of religion outweighs the state’s mandate in educating children. In the trial, fundamental issues regarding education, social and economic mobility and modernity itself were at stake. The court’s decision provided the legal framework for the ensuing rise of homeschooling in the United States. This seminar will look at the historical origin of the legal case in the 20th century. We will first look at historical and current debates on the relationship between education and modernization, the role of education as human capital formation, and its impact on social (im)mobility. Second, students will develop case studies based on empirical analyses. Schließen
