It was followed by <i>Peace or War: The American Struggle</i> in 1936. With these works, Curti helped found <a href="/wiki/Peace_and_conflict_studies" title="Peace and conflict studies">peace and conflict studies</a> as a field of study. He criticized pacifists for ignoring major social changes—especially the repudiation of old-fashioned competitive capitalism by the <a href="/wiki/New_Deal" title="New Deal">New Deal</a>, and the need to repudiate imperial greed if peace were to be achieved. In 1964 he helped found the Conference on Peace Research in History, now called the Peace History Society. <i>The Roots of American Loyalty</i> (1946) was a history of patriotism. </p><p>Curti developed his global vision through travels; he taught in Japan, Australia and India for two years.

His first foray in the field was <i>The Social Ideals of American Educators,</i> published in 1935. In 1944, Curti won the Pulitzer Prize in history for his masterwork, <i>The Growth of American Thought.</i> Its chapters show an encyclopedic knowledge of thinkers great and small from the colonial period to the present, together with his commitment to democracy as a process springing from the ideas of the people. Curti adapted <a href="/wiki/Frontier_Thesis" title="Frontier Thesis">Turner's frontier thesis</a> to intellectual history, arguing, "Because the American environment, physical and social, differed from that of Europe, Americans, confronted by different needs and problems, adapted the European intellectual heritage in their own way. And because American life came increasingly to differ from European life, American ideas, American agencies of intellectual life, and the use made of knowledge likewise came to differ in America from their European counterparts." (p vi) Unlike some of the other leaders of the American Studies program, he paid little attention to myths and symbols. Unlike <a href="/wiki/Perry_Miller" title="Perry Miller">Perry Miller</a> at Harvard, who strongly influenced a new generation of intellectual historians, Curti never delved too deeply into the internal <a href="/wiki/History_of_ideas" class="mw-redirect" title="History of ideas">history of ideas</a>, preferring to link them to multiple external social and economic factors. His book was not so much a history of American thought as a social history of American thought, with strong attention to the social and economic forces that shaped that thought from the bottom up. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="New_social_history">New social history</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Merle_Curti&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: New social history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the 1950s Curti undertook a collaborative social history of rural <a href="/wiki/Trempealeau_County,_Wisconsin" title="Trempealeau County, Wisconsin">Trempealeau County</a>, Wisconsin using avant-garde quantitative analysis of census records. The book which came out of the project, <i>The Making of an American Community: A Case Study of Democracy in a Frontier County</i> (1959) immediately became a pioneer work in what would soon be dubbed the <a href="/wiki/Social_history" title="Social history">"new social history."</a> Curti's wife Margaret Wooster Curti, provided some of the quantitative methodology. Historians, however, did not emulate it, preferring instead to follow <a href="/wiki/Stephan_Thernstrom" title="Stephan Thernstrom">Stephan Thernstrom</a>'s model in <i>Poverty and Progress: Social Mobility in a Nineteenth-Century American City</i> (1964), which used a similar methodology of tracking workers through their careers using censuses and city directories. The difference was urban and rural—urban history was exploding and rural history was a backwater; in addition the Thernstrom model was easier to replicate by a graduate student writing a Ph.D. thesis alone (Curti had numerous research assistants and coauthors). Whereas the "old" social history comprised descriptions of everyday lifestyles, perhaps with a coverage of grass roots political movements (like the <a href="/wiki/People%27s_Party_(United_States)" title="People's Party (United States)">Populists</a>), Curti's "new" social history was a systematic examination of the entire population using statistics and social science methodologies. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Teaching">Teaching</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Merle_Curti&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Teaching"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1942, Curti was called to the Frederick Jackson Turner Professorship of History at the University of Wisconsin, one of the nation's most influential centers of historical scholarship; he retired from the department in 1968.
