Citizenship Education and Women

A Study between India and Denmark

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume seeks to explore the potential for citizenship education in the understanding of violence against women and attempts to investigate whether there is any scope for the interrelation between the two. Based on a comparative analysis between India and Denmark done mostly from a theoretical perspective the book has tried to comprehend whether a sensitive form of citizenship education focusing on real but usually veiled gender injustices would be able to alert young men and women about the need to engage themselves in fighting such evil practices in their communities. This book has looked at the immense impact that the curriculum can exercise in the training on this joint responsibility by making the practices carried on against women visible to all and thereby guiding the individuals to become qualified to share the responsibility in creating a better society to live in. This is thus an effort to identify the rationale of citizenship education in the reduction of gender inequality which is one of the root causes of violence against women.
