Roots of Education: Prussian Influence and Indoctrination
This chapter explores the historical origins of the education system, particularly the Prussian model created in the 18th century, designed to promote loyalty to the state. It critiques how age-based classroom divisions and compulsory attendance can serve as tools of indoctrination rather than genuine learning. The discussion also advocates for a separation of education from state control, emphasizing the potential of homeschooling as a more liberating alternative.
