  • The deliberative approach to education for democracy : problems and possibilities
    Parker, Walter C.
    This paper describes the deliberative approach to democratic education and addresses two challenges facing it: that it privileges doing over a balanced approach of knowing-and-doing, and that ... deliberation cannot be authentic or equitable given present social hierarchies. These are serious problems. There is room to work productively on both, however, and thereby to strengthen the deliberative approach in schools. Regarding the first problem, knowledge, I concentrate on supplementing deliberation with another discussion form, seminar, that seeks understanding as a partner to decision making while maintaining the distinctive and peculiar contribution which only discussion can make. On the second problem, inequality, I emphasize developing participants' skills of deep listening-across-difference and teaching them explicitly about the deliberative benefits of diversity.
