Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The settlement house movement, launched at the end of the nineteenth century by men and women of the upper middle class, began as an attempt to understand and improve the social conditions of the working class. It gradually came to focus on the "new immigrants"—mainly Italians, Slavs, Greeks, and Jews—who figured so prominently in this changing working class. Hull House, one of the first and best-known settlement houses in the United States, was founded in September 1889 on Chicago's West Side by Jane Addams and Ellen G. Starr. In a major new study of this famous institution and its place in the movement, Rivka Shpak Lissak reassesses the impact of Hull House on the nationwide debate over the place of immigrants in American society.

Download or read book Enlightening the Next Generation written by F. Michael Perko and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1988, this title looks at the importance of the Catholic school in American education from 1830 to 1980. The articles in this collection illuminate the patterns of development. The most prevalent theme is that of school controversy, involving either Catholic conflict with public education and the wider culture on the one hand, or internal dissension within the Catholic community regarding the desirability of separate schools on the other. Taken together, these essays serve as pieces of a mosaic, interesting in themselves yet corporately providing a comprehensive picture of the history of Catholic schooling in America. They remind us that these institutions grew up as a response to particular forces at work in the wider society as well as within the Catholic community itself.

Download or read book Readings on the Development of the AMERICAN CONSTITUTION written by O. Lawrence Burnette, Jr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-01-13 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation is an effort historically to trace the systrematic and ordered changes in Constitutional thinking, by judicious selection of the key operative phrases and concepts imbeded in hundreds of cases of varying importance, more clearly to illustrate the evolutionary process by which the Constitution has come to have its current form and meaning. The effort has been to extract from the hundreds of case decisions and dissents, those immutable words and phrases which capture the essence of the points at issue, in the Justice's own words just as they wrote them in the white heat of judicial argument. Moreover, the effort has been to trace the chain of precedents for cases and concepts, more clearly to show how the jigs and jogs fo decisions have altered the Constitution as applied. Whether or not agreed to (being the subject of strong controversy between the members of the Court itself), that process is one of organic, evolutionary growth, reflecting the chaging times, concepts, legal theory, and political ideas in the American experience. In a larger perspective, the Constitution has been the greatest American export to a world grappling with the desire to emulate the American experience of liberty under law. The volume will be of interest to students of the subject, as well as the legal profession; it is the product of a lifetime spent in the study and teaching of the Great Document.
