Themes of Pedagogical Control and Autonomy in Rousseau's mile . This paper addresses themes of teacher control and student freedom in Rousseau's educational theories. Emile is widely touted as advocating the maximum student autonomy, but careful study reveals that a predetermined curriculum is maintained by the use of persuasion and cajolery, which Rousseau rightly treats as different from authoritarian force. However, the paper charges that his constant appeal to "natural inclinations" being the best teachers is contradicted by his teaching examples. 4 pgs. Bibliography lists 1 sources.
