| Sommario/riassunto: | The goal of this book is to show how we can recognise the value of the kinds of character formation that civic education has traditionally involved without losing the portion of the truth that can be found in the orthodox view that favours critical autonomy. 'Civics Beyond Critics' warns against neglecting character traits that, although commonly labelled 'conservative', are realistically essential for the future of all liberal democracies. |
