Education, the very institution meant to prepare us for such complexity, has itself become a battleground of clashing visions. What should its aims be, and why do some values feel so “natural” while others seem ideological or even threatening? What we need is conceptual clarity—a deeper understanding of why certain educational values resonate with us in the first place. Surprisingly, that clarity can come not only from philosophy but also from science.

While a binary mindset of "right versus wrong" or "informed versus misinformed" is tempting, it obscures the reality of our political disagreements. Philosophy has tools to help us understand why and how we disagree, and to point us towards the path for better public discourse. Indeed, this is the mission of What to do about now?
