In the early years of the d e b a t e politicians were calling for m o r e political education, but in recent years they have been calling for less. T h e political education m o v e m e n t of the 1970s grew out of a concern for the lack of political awareness of school-leavers. It emphasized the need to develop "political literacy", which was defined as a knowledge of politics in everyday life, understanding of political concepts such as p o w e r , liberty and authority, and support for procedural democratic values such as freedom, tolerance, fairness and respect for truth and evidencial reasoning.

We are concerned here with the whole spirit characterizing a school, the expectations and demands of adults and their words and actions as examples (National Swedish Board of Education, 1980b, p. 10). This comprehensive school curriculum was passed with the u n a n i m o u s support of all political parties and has an interesting blend of what might be thought of as liberal statements (such as those cited in an earlier section concerning the presentation of a conflict perspective on social issues) and somewhat m o r e conservative ideas about an agreed-upon set of values which the school should inculcate.
