“…To this end, social studies should help students develop a sincere respect for the Other, especially important in our increasingly diverse society. It should address a range of perspectives with the objective of striving for compromise and accommodation with an eye toward the common good (Kunzman, 2006a).…”

“…According to the research, conservative Christian teachers do not address controversial issues. If they do, progressive perspectives are absent, using omission as a hegemonic strategy (Kunzman, 2006a(Kunzman, , 2006b. There are exceptions, of course.…”

“…James (2010) makes the important point, however, that some Christian preservice teachers demonstrate "mature religiosity," or a willingness to participate in dialogue with people who do not necessarily share the same viewpoints on social and economic matters (p. 631). Kunzman (2006a) examined a civics education curriculum intended for "the million-plus and growing number of conservative Christian homeschooled students in the United States" (p. 164). The curriculum, called Generation Joshua, included pedagogy on how to ban gay marriage, on discouraging women from taking leadership positions, and on supporting a Christian United States of America.…”

This article describes a study that took place in Saskatchewan, Canada, during 2013-2014. Ten practicing high school social studies teachers who self-identified as Christian answered an unsolicited invitation to participate in a qualitative study about the ways in which they think about social justice. Almost evenly split between Catholic and Protestant, female and male, and urban and rural, most participants were very progressive in their thinking about important economic and social issues. For example, all supported paying taxes and the social welfare state, and almost all supported gay rights and feminism. As well, an important emergent theme arose: The majority spoke about breaking from the teachings of their church if the teachings did not fit with contemporary society. All of them claimed that their faith influenced their thinking about social justice. The study challenges some secular notions about the values held by Christian social studies teachers. Situated in Canada, the study challenges American research findings about the political ideology and values of Christian social studies teachers. Keywords: social studies education; teaching for social justice; controversial issues; teacher beliefs; Christian teaching

“…Vor dem Hintergrund der angelsächsischen und amerikanischen Tugenddebatten kann m. A. n. die Unterscheidung zwischen Charakter und Persönlichkeit noch schärfer formuliert werden bzw. zwischen Tugenden und anderen Qualitäten, was ich wie folgt formulieren will: Die Schule als öffentliche Instanz fördert soziale im Sinne von demokratischen Tugenden (Kunzman 2006;White 1996) …”
