Reason, Education, and Liberalism: Family Resemblance within an Overlapping Consensus.
Halliday, John
Studies in Philosophy and Education, v20 n3 p225-34 May 2001
Discusses recent debates concerning the nature of liberalism and its central feature of reason. Examines ideas from Jonathan, Hirst, Rawls, Gadamer, Wittgenstein, Taylor, and Ackerman. Suggests that the search for transcendental conceptions of justice and reason must be abandoned in favor of a more fluid curriculum structure. (Contains 18 references.) (NB)
