Citizenship Education around the World (eBook, PDF)

Local Contexts and Global Possibilities
Redaktion: Petrovic, John; Kuntz, Aaron

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume offers an international perspective on citizenship education enacted in specific socio-political contexts. Each chapter includes a pointed conceptualization of citizenship education-a philosophical framework-that is then applied to specific national cases across Europe, Asia, Canada and more. Chapters emphasize how such frameworks are implemented within local contexts, encouraging particular pedagogical/curricular practices even as they constrain others. Chapters conclude with suggestions for productive change and how educators might usefully engage contemporary contexts through citizenship education.
