Description: Crucible of Consent : American Child Rearing and the Forging of Liberal Society, Hardcover by Block, James E., ISBN 0674051947, ISBN-13 9780674051942, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Block (political science, DePaul U.) offers an intriguing study of the development of individual and civic identity in a liberal American context, exploring the methodologies of child rearing and education in the country's early years and evaluating the effects of twentieth-century variations in educational and family norms on modern trends in the definition of citizenship and social cohesion. The work discusses the development of child rearing structures that moderated the anti-authoritarian principles of the nation's founding yet fostered the development of personal autonomy and responsibility within a framework of rewards based on social acceptance and the fulfillment of duty.
