Educational Value

The influence of John Dewey's philosophy of education - most notably, emphasizing the educational value of experience and service, situating learning in community, and promoting a faith in cultural pluralism - is evident in recent calls for institutions of higher education to strengthen to the larger community and to promote multiculturalism (Gamson, 1997).

Deliberative System

While the discussion on education for deliberative democracy is increasingly gaining prominence, there is a deep gap between the theories of deliberative democracy and democratic education with respect to what deliberative democracy is and ought to be. As a result, theories and practices of democratic education tend to be grounded in a narrow understanding of the meaning of deliberative competencies, students’ deliberative agency, and the role of schools in deliberative democracy. Drawing on the latest theorization of deliberative democracy – deliberative system theory – this article aims to question and revise these assumptions. The article suggests that meta-deliberation is a key practice that can reconcile the gap between the two theories.
