Many people place great stock in the importance of civic virtue to
the success of democratic communities. Is this hope well-grounded?
The fundamental question is whether it is even possible to
cultivate ethical and civic virtues in the first place. Taking for
granted that it is possible, at least three further questions
arise: What are the key elements of civic virtue? How should we
cultivate these virtuous dispositions? And finally, how should
schools be organized in order to make the education of citizen
possible? These interrelated questions are the focus of this
collection. By considering these questions from a variety of
philosophical perspectives ranging from moral psychology,
philosophy of education, and political philosophy, the nine essays
assembled here advance our understanding of the challenges we face
in trying to shape children to be virtuous citizens.
