Tradition and Integrity in Moral Education.

Callan, Eamonn

American Journal of Education, v101 n1 p1-28 Nov 1992

Offers a philosophical critique of traditionalism, and considers how the educational agenda of its proponents should be assessed within the context of a liberal policy. Education befitting a liberal political morality and respect for children's rights limit the extent to which traditionalist moral education can be tolerated. (SLD)
