Handbuch Vereine der Reformpädagogik

This handbook is the first which presents an overview of more than 60 supra-regional associations of “Reformpädagogik” or associations which are open towards progressive education teaching in the German-speaking countries. Furthermore, it provides quick access to further information, facts and contact details. In addition to the four well-known persons – Freinet, Montessori, Petersen and Steiner – you will also find far less well-known names such as Boeke, Freire, Korczak, Krishnamurti, Malaguzzi and others. Compilatory models such as the Marchtalplan and the Daltonplan, as well as innovative associations without specific progressive education character, such as the initiative ‘Schule im Aufbruch’, the ‘Archiv der Zukunft’, the School Network ‘Blick über den Zaun’, etc. all have important bridging functions between progressive education and non-progressive education. The handbook is an indispensable tool for professors, lecturers and students alike, as well as teachers and parents interested in progressive education, educational researchers and politicians, as it provides quick access to further information, facts and contact details.
