If we try to discover the educational power of Human Rights, attention
should be paid to the value and meaning of Human Rights, to the reasons
for and against them, to the possibility of their being enacted, and to
their foundations. This discussion is the best way to build a plural
civic education, viewed as moral education. This latter must
necessarily be carried out relaying on social action in addition to
school education. It is not the case of merely introducing some new specifics themes of the education for citizenship; it implies a new way of educating. Francisco Altarejos y Concepción Naval Durán Key words: Human Rights, Moral Education, Education for Citizenship, Civic Education |
