Liberalism and Denominational Schools.
Snik, Ger; Jong, Johan De
Journal of Moral Education, v24 n4 p395-407 Nov 1995
Considers the paradox of a liberal, pluralist society supporting (subsidizing) religious schools whose beliefs are more restrictive and judgmental. Argues that recognition of group rights is sanctioned in liberal thought as long as it does not impinge on individual rights. Discusses liberal responses to conflicts between communitarian concepts and autonomy. (MJP)
