How coherent is the claim that Catholic education is both
distinctive and inclusive? This question, so crucial, both for the
adequate articulation of a raison d' tre for Catholic schools all
over the world and also for the promotion of their healthy
functioning, has not hitherto been addressed critically. Here it
receives penetrating analysis and constructive resolution in a
comprehensive treatment that integrates theological, philosophical
and educational perspectives. The argument draws on wide-ranging
scholarship, offering new insights into the relevance for Catholic
education of thinkers whose work has been relatively neglected. The
advance in understanding of how distinctiveness relates to
inclusiveness is underpinned by the author's lengthy experience of
teaching and leadership in Catholic schools; it is further informed
by his extended and continuing dialogue with Catholic educators at
all levels and in many different countries.
