Care and Education of Young Children of Pauper and Working Classes: New Lanark, Scotland, 1790-1825.

Carlson, Helen L.

Paedagogica Historica, v28 n1 p9-34 1992

Discusses New Lanark, the nineteenth-century utopian community organized in Scotland by David Dale and Robert Owen. Underscores the centrality of child care, housing, health care, and ongoing education within the community. Recommends applying New Lanark principles in addressing the great disparities of the 1990s, particularly as they affect young children. (SG)
