Description
American education is failing to produce democratic citizens. Skepticism and multiculturalism from the left undercut community, while anti-democratic philosophies in the Plato-Strauss-Bloom line undercut education. In addition to supporting inclusive and binding education, the book argues for an increased emphasis on community service to drive home what it means to live in a democracy.
First Sentence
Around the world the cry “Democracy!” has shattered tyranny’s silence and caused the most stubborn of dictators to lose their confidence in the politics of fear.
