Questioning the parental right to educational authority

• What might schooling mean for democracy and more precise: What are the implications for democracy in relation to different models of educational authority? What does especially the, by many attractive, principle of parental right to educational authority mean for democracy in the long run?I will in the following take my starting point in three models of educational authority and especially question the permissive attitude among prominent philosophers of education and political philosophers towards the parental right to educational authority in light of its shortcomings in relation to a development towards a democracy with deliberative qualities, which I use as a normative reference point.
