In 1953 William 0 . Stanley wrote the prominent social reconstructionist treatise, Education and Social Integration. Fifteen years later he concluded that because of insufficient popular commitment, reconstruction had not occurred. Nevertheless, Stanley closed his 1968 address by reaffirming the fundamental commitment. of the Western people to democracy. The article which follows argues that Stanley even in 1968 is too sanguine: democratic reconstruction can take place only if establishment of the very commitment he assumes already to exist is made a primary goal of political education .
