The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that although Mao Zedong (1893-1976) and John Dewey (1859-1952) grew up in different countries and in different cultures they held very similar ideas in their educational thought. Similarities in Mao's and Dewey's educational thought were rooted in maternal modeling of benevolent action. The social transitions of their time provided them opportunities to expand this idea to solve social problems through education. Exposure to common philosophical sources also resulted in similarities in their philosophical thought.
