本文论述了试图通过人民主权的概念和自治公民的形成来理解公民教育所固有的一些问题。它通过对近代早期国家中主权与政府、主权与道德真理分离的过程进行历史考察来做到这一点。有人认为，在忽视这些分离的重要性，形成自由主义的多元国家，目前的哲学自由主义的风险把学校系统变成一个工具的道德强制，危及其作为一个工具的社会治理的作用。
This article addresses some of the problems inherent in attempts to understand citizenship education through the concept of popular sovereignty and the formation of self-governing citizens. It does so via a historical investigation of the processes responsible for the separation of sovereignty and government and sovereignty and moral truth in the early modern state. It is argued that in losing sight of the importance of these separations for the formation of liberal pluralist states, current philosophical liberalism risks turning the school system into an instrument of moral coercion, jeopardizing its role as an instrument of social governance.
