Reclaiming the Common Sacred Ground: the past, present and future of comparative Jewish-Muslim Education

Wilkinson, Matthew L. N.; Sokolow, Moshe

Abstract

It is axiomatic that education is both political and philosophical-theological activity. It is political in that any human grouping prepares its young and, to a lesser degree, its mature members either to replicate and/or to transform its received knowledge and customs. It is philosophical-theological in that all educational processes rest upon shared assumptions, articulated and unarticulated, about the nature of the world, the self and their Source (or lack of It).
