Abstract	It is the contention of this paper that schools are currently sandwiched between demands of the economy on one side and increasingly fundamentalist communities on the other; that schools need some degree of autonomy from each; that the greatest challenge of the century is how we can live together despite our differences; and that the only way of successfully meeting this challenge is for schools to put social justice at the heart of their activities, activities that are best informed by the "cultivation of reasoned imagination"--that is, by an "aesthetic" approach to the development of intellectual, social, cultural, economic and personal identities.
