Resumo |
The aim of the paper is to explore teachers’ methods of delivering an ethos of tolerance, respect<br/>and mutual understanding in one integrated secondary school in Northern Ireland. Drawing on<br/>interviews with teachers in the school, it is argued that most teachers make ‘critical choices’<br/>which both reflect and reinforce a ‘culture of avoidance’, whereby politically or religiously contentious<br/>issues are avoided rather than explored. Although teachers are well-intentioned in making<br/>these choices, it is shown that they have the potential to create the conditions that maintain or even<br/>harden psychological boundaries between Catholics and Protestants rather than dilute them.<br/> |
