Abstract	This article argues that the larger context of American life--the cultural, social, and intellectual currents--is what shapes the professional writing of history in the United States. The essay examines the contexts that brought forth the progressive scholarship early in the century, the consensus and psychoanalytic histories of mid-century, the revisionist works of the 1960s and 1970s, and the synthetic histories of recent decades. The article concludes by surveying other recent trends--such as the rise of postmodernism, global history, and policy-oriented scholarship--and their impact on the history of education. (ERIC).
