| Abstract | Investigates the background, process, and effects of the German-American academic transfer of the second half of the 19th century and its role in the development of the modern American research university. The crisis of the traditional American college that reached its climax after the Civil War prompted a few academic migrations to Germany. Most graduates then chose to return to the US, where they promoted the German university model in a reformist agenda directed against the hegemony of pietist administrators and the ideology of the “all-rounded-man” education. The transfer of the concept of “academic freedom” suggested the establishment of graduate research programs to be regulated by the academic community at its own discretion. |
