- W388214015 abstract "This response to Peterson’s (2014) “Nonviolent Action as a Necessary Component in Educating for Democracy” enlarges the discussion of the role of the teacher/educator in deciding whether or when it is responsible to facilitate the engagement of students in acts of nonviolent dissent. Ultimately it would seem that the most important of our responsibilities as educators is to provide the moral and ethical foundations and the spaces in which students feel safe and empowered to tap into their own inner teachers. In order to promote the development of active engagement toward a democratic citizenry, including the moral imperative to transform violence, students must be helped toward a holistic understanding of the structural roots of injustice and oppression in their myriad forms. This will go beyond teaching about nonviolence and dissent to include the teaching of the concepts of peace and, by corollary, peacelearning. This article is a response to: Peterson, B. A. (2014). Nonviolent action as a necessary component in educating for democracy. Democracy & Education, 22(1), Article 2. Available at: http://democracyeducationjournal.org/home/vol22/iss1/2 A central and very important thesis of Peterson’s (2014) “Nonviolent Action as a Necessary Component in Educating for Democracy” is that there are compelling reasons that students be exposed to the ideas and practices of nonviolent dissent as an essential component of a pedagogy that teaches toward democracy and engaged citizenry. Peterson also stressed, however, that a cautious approach needs to be taken by educators in how far students are encouraged to engage in acts of nonviolence that are illegal. According to her, educators should be discouraged from supporting students engaging in acts that may irreparably harm themselves or their peers, particularly with regards to any impediments to present or future “educational opportunities” (p. 3). The essay raises a central dilemma: How do teachers effectively teach dissent in a responsible and effective manner and yet also fire up the energy of students to become engaged and active citizens? Peterson rightfully acknowledges the lack of adequate research and study into not only the teaching of nonviolent dissent but the dilemmas facing educators of how far to go. The article raises several intriguing issues. One is the importance of educating students with the requisite knowledge and skills to influence issues of structural and institutional power and their relationship to Mary Lee Morrison is an educator and author based in Hartford, Connecticut. She received her PhD in educational studies from the University of Connecticut in 2001 and in 2003 founded Pax Educare, Inc., the Connecticut Center for Peace Education. Morrison has taught at the National Peace Academy and the Graduate Institute Master’s Program in Conflict Transformation, among others. She has authored several books, including the third edition (with Ian Harris) of Peace Education." @default.
