Common Schools for Common Education.
Callan, Eamonn
Canadian Journal of Education, v20 n3 p251-71 Sum 1995
A vision of common education for citizens of a liberal democracy warrants faith in common schools as an instrument of social good. Some kinds of separate schooling are not inconsistent with common schooling and are even desirable. Equal respect, as defined by J. Rawls, is a basis for common education. (SLD)
