Reconciling the Civic, the Sacred, and the Just in Critical-Pragmatic Education
Miedema, Siebren; Bertram-Troost, Gerdien
Religious Education, v109 n1 p72-80 2014
In this article the authors outline a core concern regarding the importance of intertwining the three forms of education: citizenship education, worldview education, and human rights education. Secondly, they take a transformative view within a critical-pragmatic pedagogy with the aim of strengthening the potential for social engagement, solidarity, encounter, and dialogue within their pedagogical and political initiatives, and to tackle the dangers of religions and worldviews within the setting of the schools. Finally, they reflect on the impact of this for the state and for schools when the just, the civic, and the sacred are to be reconciled in citizenship education, worldview education, and human rights education.
