Beyer, Landon E. – Issues in Education, 1986
The role of schools in promoting a democratic social order is obscured by confused attempts to embed moral dialog in society and by the loss of communities wherein such discourse prompts social action. Schools can assist by realizing the full participative decision making that reconstitutes democracy as a cultural form. (CJH)
