ABSTRACT

In 1938, as Europe was about to lead the world into a brutal conflagration, Virginia Woolf recognized the urgency for a fundamental educational change. This educational change would necessarily include economic transformation. As well, Woolf understood that without this change, there would be an inevitable spiraling toward escalating militarism and widespread destruction. Today, as the United States has sparked off a major global conflict that will probably ignite others, Virginia Woolf’s lessons remain unlearned.
