Since September 11, 2001, the profile of religion's role in our
global society has increased significantly. Religion has long been
a force in people's lives as numerous studies and polls show, yet
we continue to struggle with understanding differing religious
traditions and what they mean for our common life. There are few
places where Americans can meet together to learn about each other
and to share in the common construction of our futures. One such
place for many is public education. The purpose of this book is to
illustrate the complexity of the social, cultural, and legal milieu
of schooling in the United States in which the improvement of
religious literacy and understanding must take place. Public
education is the new commons. We must negotiate this commons in two
meanings of that term: first, we must come to mutual understandings
and agreement about how to proceed toward a common horizon of a
religiously plural America; second, we must work our way through
the obstacles in these settings in practical ways to achieve
results that work.
