Education for democracy

Ronald Swartz

pp. 301-304

In relationship to education for democracy, we can ask at least the following two questions: (1) What kinds of educational programs should be tolerated, and perhaps even encouraged, in democratic societies? and, (2) Is it reasonable to create educational programs that are organized as democratic learning communities? The first question can be referred to as the problem of creating educational programs in democratic societies. The second question can be called the educational problem of creating democratic learning communities. In this brief essay my goal is to say more about the second question, but I will also say a few words about the first.
