This paper focuses on recent debates over the nature of liberalism and its central feature of reason, both inside and outside of educational philosophy. Central ideas from Jonathan and Hirst contribute as do those from Rawls, Gadamer, Wittgenstein, Taylor, and Ackerman toward a less traditional contextualized and contingent view. © 2001 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
