The authors examine a broad range of Catholic high schools to determine whether or not students are better educated in these schools than they are in public schools. They find that the Catholic schools do have an independent effect on achievement, especially in reducing disparities between disadvantaged and privileged students. The Catholic school of today, they show, is informed by a vision, similar to that of John Dewey, of the school as a community committed to democratic education and the common good of all students.

Children, Consumerism, and the Common Good explores the impact of consumer culture on the lives of children in the United States and globally, focusing on two phenomena: advertising to children and child labor. Christian communities have a critical role to play in securing the well-being of children and challenging the cultural trends that undermine that well-being. Exploring themes in the tradition of Catholic social teaching, Mary M. Doyle Roche argues that children have a claim on the fruits of our common life and should participate in that life according to their age and ability. Roche utilizes the principle of the common good to analyze children's participation in the market and suggests opportunities for resistance and transformation in the context of the consumerism that pervades everyday life.

How coherent is the claim that Catholic education is both distinctive and inclusive? This question, so crucial, both for the adequate articulation of a raison d'être for Catholic schools all over the world and also for the promotion of their healthy functioning, has not hitherto been addressed critically. Here it receives penetrating analysis and constructive resolution in a comprehensive treatment that integrates theological, philosophical and educational perspectives. The argument draws on wide-ranging scholarship, offering new insights into the relevance for Catholic education of thinkers whose work has been relatively neglected. The advance in understanding of how distinctiveness relates to inclusiveness is underpinned by the author's lengthy experience of teaching and leadership in Catholic schools; it is further informed by his extended and continuing dialogue with Catholic educators at all levels and in many different countries.

Today’s pluralist and multicultural society raises questions about how to teach religiously and ethnically diverse students in Catholic schools. A Catholic Philosophy of Education addresses these challenges by examining the documents from the Roman Congregation for Catholic Education alongside the writings of Jacques Maritain and Bernard Lonergan. Mario D’Souza proposes a contemporary formulation for a Catholic philosophy of education in which the ideals of Catholicism form the basis for the mission of the Catholic school. Drawing on the Church’s educational documents, and informed by Maritain and Lonergan, D’Souza explains how the unifying anthropology of Catholic education enables Catholic schools to serve amidst diversity by avoiding the extremes of religious exclusivism and fundamentalism, on the one hand, and relativism and individualism, on the other. He explores the aims of Catholic schools in relation to students, teachers, and society, and the relationship between goodness, discipline, and knowledge. He argues that students must be educated for personal and communal freedom and authenticity, and to strive for the common good, suggesting how a Catholic philosophy of education can provide the framework for such personal and communal transformation. Essential reading for new and experienced Catholic educators, A Catholic Philosophy of Education demonstrates that Maritain and Lonergan have much to offer in service of an education that is liberating, instructive, illuminating, and integrative.

Part of a six volume series of theme papers commissioned for the National Congress on Catholic Schools for the 21st century, November 6-10, 1991, two papers are included in this volume. In "The Catholic School and the Common Good," John Coons has two objectives: (1) to describe the secular and religious roles of the Catholic school within the historical and contemporary economy of U.S. education; and (2) to consider the social wisdom of providing all families the opportunity to choose among the range of government and private schools, including religious schools. In "Non-Public Schools and Public Policy: The Past, the Present, and Perhaps, the Future," Frank J. Monahan questions public financial assistance for non-public elementary and secondary education.

The essays in this volume, in different ways, invite the reader to consider Catholic identity not only in terms of who we are but what are we for? To be sure, identity and mission are deeply interconnected but offer different starting points for reflection on formation. The authors of this volume, working in Catholic higher education, elementary and secondary education, Catholic social services and pastoral ministries--articulate a number of challenges when it comes to formation around Catholic identity. How does the Catholic identity of a college or university enter into the curriculum and institutional practices of a community? How does Catholic identity contribute to the training and self-understanding of educators in elementary and secondary schools? How does an organization inspire and empower the laity into leadership? At the heart of these questions is the challenge of building the common good within the Church and for the world.
