Philosophy of Education Found in the Rule of St. Benedict

In view of the growing complexities of life, a rapidly changing civilization and the bewilderment of the post-war world, educators today are reaching out for principles and standards whereby to evaluate their educative policies, measure their shortcomings and check their progress. | Underlying their demands for principles and criteria is the recognition of an imperative need for a sure philosophical basis on which to rest their educational endeavor. They must know the nature of that with which they deal, its needs and Its destiny, hence they must know the nature of man; his relation to the State; the proper functions of the State in the life of the individual; the boundaries of the authority of the State and the code of ethics which it must observe.
