Rousas Rushdoony  

Definition

  • Rousas J. Rushdoony's writings, addresses, and political activism have had a profound influence on the Christian day school and homeschooling movements from the 1960s to his death in 2001, making him one of the 20th century's most important dissenters against the U.S. public school paradigm. Born in 1916 to Presbyterian Armenian immigrants who had narrowly escaped the Armenian genocide during World War I, Rushdoony earned his B.A. and an M.A. in education from the University of California at Berkeley.
