description: The questions that drive this collection How did a 19th-century German educational experiment become a standard international institution of early childhood schooling? How was this tool for influencing the minds of young children adapted to the national and ideological purposes of various countries? What changes, in turn, in cultural attitudes toward schooling did the kindergarten movement effect? In particular, what role did kindergartens play in the colonization and westernization of African and Asian peoples?
