Context
John Dewey
[The paper examines John Dewey's philosophy on the interdependence of democracy and education. It argues that a democratic civic education is crucial in fostering responsible citizenship, especially in an era marked by uncertainty and the challenges posed by modernity. By promoting critical thinking, cooperative enterprise, and the scientific attitude, Dewey's ideas highlight the necessity for citizens to actively engage in ethical deliberations and social responsibilities, ultimately reinforcing the relationship between civic education and democratic ideals.
