This volume in Religion and Public Life, a series on religion and public affairs, provides a wide-ranging forum for differing views on religious and ethical considerations. The contributions address the decline of social capital -- those patterns of behavior which are conducive to self-governance and the spirit of self-reliance -- and its relation to the demise of the civic-humanist tradition in American education.
