Popis: Kandel (1881–1965) is the most widely recognized leader and founder of modern comparativeeducation. He asserted that the direction of education in democratic nations ought to be "borrowed andadjusted" within the cultural context of each nation. He further argued that, "so many of the problems ineducation are today common to most countries; in their solution certain common principles . . . areinvolved; the practical outcomes may, however, differ because of differences in tradition, in social andpolitical principles, and in cultural standards"(Kandel, 1936, p. 401). As Kandel (1933) suggested, theproblems and purposes of education have in general become somewhat similar. It is thereforeimportant to learn from the experiences of other cultures and nations.
