The Two Moral Powers and the Purpose of Peace Education

The purpose of this paper is to conceptualize the idea of the development of political efficacy as the core purpose of peace education in terms of what Martha Nussbaum refers to as the architectonic capabilities of practical reason and sociability and what John Rawls refers to as the two moral powers of rationality and reasonableness. An education for peace calls for the development of basic moral capabilities that empower future citizens for political and moral efficacy. It is argued that the development of the political efficacy of citizens is grounded in their basic moral capacities and the development of these powers through a pedagogy of reflective, dialogical inquiry can be conceived as the basic purpose of an education for peace
