Abstract
Worldwide there is currently an enormous interest in values and norms and in the role of education in this matter. This interest stems in particular from the postmodern situation of a lack of common values and norms. The positive side of the postmodern development is the greater autonomy individuals have in constructing their own identity and morality. The problematic site of this postmodern development is the uncertainty about which values are important to live and the difficulty of constructing norms together.
