Abstract
From a global perspective the spread of mass education might best be examined by focusing on the period 1870–1945—an interval that resulted in an enormous aggrandizement of the reach of the state in many regions of the world.
This book chapter was prepared within the framework of the Basic Research Program at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) and supported within the framework of a subsidy by the Russian Academic Excellence Project ‘5–100’.
