| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the formation of the school district system from 1808 until 1848 in Prussia Dominium and rural parish was reorganaized by the agricultural reform. Thereby, a mechanism in lokal administration and a traditional culture was destroyed and didn't function. Therefore, the central government in Berlin had to reconstruct the lokal administrative systems and reorganize the indentification of people with state. The reorganization of administrative systems in 1808,1817,1825 and 1845 intended getting school and church in lokal society under state. That concrete policy was to reorganize lokal society under state power. In order to achieve this policy, the central government in Berlin tried to reorganize administratively the lokal society, which was disorganized by the agricultural reform, as the basic unit of the school district.
In 1845, the Prussian Provincial Diet, Provinziallandtag, is deliberating the draft of the general elementary schoolregulation in province Pressia (Entwurf einer allgemeinen Schulordnung fur die elementarschulen der Provinz PreuBen). The important point in this deliberation was the matter of the school district formation. However, in opposition to the central government, the Prussian Provincial Diet manifested an autonomy of the school district. I gave this autonomy a term of Gemeindismus. Gemeindismus of the school district is practiced by a board of school and controles a one-seded administrial direction.
A board of school organizes the private funktion of education in families by attendance of inhabitants and regards this private funktion as the matter of public funktion. I gave this public funktion a term of publicity, Offentlichkeit, of the shool district system.
The author first shows in this report that the school district system in Germany (Prussia) has the above-mentioned formation process.
