Professor Crittenden debates whether some form of common curriculum, far from offending the values of pluralism, may be justified by them and required for their defence. He examines the conditions that pluralism as an ideal of social order needs to satisfy, and argues that the coherence of a pluralist society and respect for its diversity depend on several essential elements of unity. These elements provide the blueprint for a core of common learning that is vital for the welfare of a pluralist society." Contents include: 6 chapters, Appendix, Notes and Index.
