Resumo: This article draws on the experiences of Ireland and England, which support different conceptions and practices of religious education (RE), in order to provide a normative framework for the organisation of RE in multicultural states. This analysis consists in an assessment of three conceptions of religious education: the liberal conception, which emphasises neutrality and objectivity; the pragmatist conception, which is egalitarian in character; and the tradition-oriented conception, which is based on a substantive ethics. Rejecting the view that religious education should be only informative and free from criticism of content, I will make the case for an ethical-dialogical approach to RE, whereby pupils can learn from each other’s beliefs and experiences, as availed by their own cultural traditions, without setting aside their capacity to evaluate different moral claims. This approach to RE is especially designed to multidenominational schools that recognise the ethical potential of learning from religion, but are sensible towards issues of conscience in plural environments.

Rechazando la opinión de que la educación religiosa solo debe ser informativa y estar libre de críticas de contenido, defiendo un enfoque ético-dialógico de la ER, a través del cual los estudiantes pueden aprender de las creencias y experiencias de los demás de acuerdo con sus propias tradiciones culturales, sin descuidar su capacidad para aprender. evaluar diferentes afirmaciones morales. Este enfoque de ER está especialmente dirigido a escuelas multidenominacionales que reconocen el potencial ético de aprender de la religión, pero son sensibles a los problemas de conciencia en entornos plurales.Este artigo baseia-se nas experiências da Irlanda e da Inglaterra, que proveem diferentes concepções e práticas de educação religiosa (ER), a fim de fornecer uma estrutura normativa para a organização de ER em estados multiculturais.
