Excerpt from Can We Be Equal and Excellent Too?
It was all in fun, and the culprit turned out to be one of my best students. But the phrases ground themselves into my mind. Lurking behind the words were some interesting social meanings. It was not hard to detect in the educational world of the 1930's echoes Of the same equalitarianism that rang in those phrases.
The subject has never ceased to interest me. This is a book about excellence, more particularly about the conditions under which excellence is possible in our kind Of society; but it is also - inevitably - a book about equality, about the kinds of equality that can and must be honored, and the kinds that cannot be forced.
Such a book must raise some questions which Americans have shown little inclination to discuss rationally.
What are the characteristic difficulties a democracy encounters in pursuing excellence? Is there a way out of these difficulties?
