Moral conceptions wield tremendous power over people. The quest for rights, in school or out, is a quest for power. Such a quest is born of a relationship of power. The word 'rights', being a moral term, suggests that something more important is going on - much of the power of morality derives from this very deception. Human history is the tale of overriding power slipping from here to there to there ad infinitum or until the human race is no more. Morality both constrains human conflict and provokes it. Schools will not escape the consequences of this dilemma.
