"The author examines Arnold's writings and presents three closely related arguments--that England was behind countries like France and Germany in "the civilization of her middle class," that advances being made abroad were largely due to strong state education systems, that it was essential for England to establish a state system of post-elementary education modeled on foreign systems"--
