Visions of Schooling Conscience, Community and Common Education Rosemary C. Salomone

In this work, Rosemary Salomone sets aside the ideological and inflammatory rhetoric that surrounds today's debates about public education. Instead she seeks to offer a fair-minded examination of education for democratic citizenship in a society that values freedom of conscience and religious pluralism. She proposes a balanced course of controlled choice, redefining but not severing the relationship between education and the state.
