Fundamentalist U: Keeping the Faith in American Higher Education
What has it meant to be a fundamentalist?” To answer this question, Adam Laats traces the history of a set of influential, interdenominational Christian schools (the Moody Bible Institute, Wheaton College, Gordon College, Dallas Theological Seminary, Westminster Theological Seminary, Biola University, Liberty University, and Bob Jones University) that took their shape from the fundamentalist movement that roiled U.S. Protestantism in the 1920s. F…
Parsing Postwar American Rationality
The “long 1950s,” once written off as a conservative era, now figure in many histories as the height of American “high modernity,” the apogee of a scientific outlook rooted in instrumental reason. This portrait suggests that the “Enlightenment project” took firm hold of American thought and culture in the early Cold War years, having finally defeated those who sought to yoke scientific rationality to one or another system of moral restraints. Des…

The Social Sciences, Philosophy, and the Cultural Turn in the 1930s Usda: The Cultural Turn in the 1930s Usda
One of the more unusual attempts by the American state to mobilize academic expertise unfolded in the late 1930s, when the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) hired scholars in the "culture and personality" fields and philosophy to aid its efforts to promote economic, social, and cultural change in the countryside. USDA progressives also reached out to disciplinary scholars in other ways as they sought to institute a deliberative mode …
The Politics of Knowledge in 1960s America
This article offers a broad sketch of claims regarding the university’s public purpose in the 1960s while noting that a vision of the university as an autonomous forum for moral debate cut across the seemingly insurmountable divide between young radicals and their liberal elders. Read through the lens of educational philosophies, the era's clashes did not simply pit liberal advocates of political neutrality against radical exponents of political …

Canonizing Dewey: Naturalism, Logical Empiricism, and the Idea of American Philosophy
Between World War I and World War II, the students of Columbia University's John Dewey and Frederick J. E. Woodbridge built up a school of philosophical naturalism sharply critical of claims to value-neutrality. In the 1930s and 1940s, the second-generation Columbia naturalists (John Herman Randall Jr, Herbert W. Schneider, Irwin Edman, Horace L. Friess, and James Gutmann) and their students who later joined the department (Charles Frankel, Josep…
