This Narrative has been developed as part of the project Teaching European History in the 21st Century (TEH21) [https://teh21.sites.uu.nl/], which is funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. Together with the narratives on "Science and Technological Change", "Social Engineering and Welfare", and “Education and Knowledge Transfer”, it is part of the fourth unit of the handbook "The European Experience. A Multi-Perspective History of Modern Europe, 1500-2000" [https://www.openbookpublishers.com/books/10.11647/obp.0323]. This handbook is one of the outputs of the TEH21 project. As a whole, the unit focuses on the concept of "Knowledge".
