Korea’s ‘education fever’ from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first century
Embracing Allied Approaches to Public Health: Luxembourg's Industrial Elites and the Rockefeller Mission against Tuberculosis in France after the First World War
The Rockefeller Commission for the Prevention of Tuberculosis in France played a key role in public health reforms in post-World War I France. In May 1920, one of the commission's traveling units whose goal was to bring health education to the French departments toured the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. This article discusses this ten-day campaign as a trigger for comprehensive public health reforms in Luxembourg. By the 1920s the steel industry had …
Industrial Elites, Philanthrocapitalism and the Institutionalisation of Visiting Nursing in Interwar Luxembourg
In the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, rapid industrialisation since the late nineteenth century raised awareness of multiple public health issues, most urgently the wide spread of tuberculosis among the working population. Representatives of Luxembourg’s steel elite made use of private welfare organisations in order to implement their vision of public health philanthropy. Focusing on the introduction of visiting nurses in the early 1920s, this articl…
Europäische Verflechtungen gewerblicher Bildung im Industriezeitalter: Luxemburgs Staatshandwerkerschule, 1896-1940
This article traces the history of one of Luxembourg’s major technical schools – the École d’artisans de l’État or Staatshandwerkerschule – from its foundation in 1896 until the Second World War. The institution aimed at replacing traditional apprenticeship and offered both technically and artistically oriented three-year programmes for boys who had completed primary instruction. Its first permanent director, Antoine Hirsch, was among the leading…
Buddhism, Business, and Red-Cross Diplomacy: Aline Mayrisch de Saint-Hubert’s Journeys to East Asia in the Interwar Period
The Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg is a small state in the heart of Western Europe. Surrounded by Belgium, Germany, and France, the country lacks direct sea access. Boasting a multilingual population, Luxembourg perceives itself as located at the crossroads of French and German culture. Considering its many and empirically traceable cross-border entanglements, a supranational European narrative of Luxembourg's history is a convincing proposition.1 How…
The center of the manual training movement in Germany”: Die Deutsche Lehrerbildungsanstalt für Knabenhandarbeit in Leipzig, 1887–1914
In the decades around 1900, reformers in virtually all industrialising countries debated boys’ manual training as a new subject for primary education. This contribution discusses the German debates on and institutions of manual training from a transnational perspective. The focus is on the German Association for Manual Training founded by Emil von Schenckendorff in 1886 and its Training College for Teachers established one year later in Leipzig, …

Europeans and Americans in Korea, 1882–1910: A Bourgeois and Translocal Community
This article deals with the European and American community in Korea between the conclusion of Korea’s first international treaties in the early 1880s and the country’s annexation by the Japanese Empire in 1910. It begins by presenting an overview of the community. Concentrated in Seoul and Chemulp’o, the Anglo-Saxon element dominated a community made up of diplomats, foreign experts in the service of the Korean government, merchants and missiona…
The finest ‘bunch’ of children to be found anywhere”: Educating European and American youths in Korea, 1880s–1940s
This article discusses how European and American communities in Korea organised the education of their own children from the “opening” of the country to foreign residents in the 1880s until the Second World War. Education serves as a lens to investigate these dominantly bourgeois communities of missionaries, merchants, experts and diplomats in a non-European environment and contributes a fresh perspective to a social history of globalisation. The…

The beginnings of modern education in Korea, 1883–1910
Korea opened up to foreign intercourse in 1876, when the country concluded its first international treaty with Japan. Similar treaties with European and American nations followed during the 1880s. The period until 1910, when Korea was annexed to the Japanese Empire, saw manifold attempts to reform as well as resistance to these reforms. Against the background of research on the world institutionalisation of education, this contribution analyses t…
