In the province of Quebec, as in many western countries, the responsibility of the school system for preparing the future generation to face the difficult problems of adjustment to rapid technological changes has been at the centre of many discussions in the last few years. The virage technologique has become a catchword for many people in the educational field. However, there is another problem of our time which appears to have attracted much less attention until now: the adjustment to the growing cultural and ideological plurality of our societies. The virage interculturel has not yet become a catchword for educators but I believe that it needs to be taken much more seriously than it has been in the past. In this paper, I would like to explain briefly some of the implications for religious education of what is now being called 'intercultural education'. After having presented a definition of this concept, I will focus on one of the basic problems which will have to be clarified if religious education is to get seriously involved in the development of intercultural understanding and communication: the 'problem of relativism'. |
