Description

The book provides a single-volume case for why and how the provision of political education should be substantially improved. It goes beyond looking at current practices in schools and argues for critical changes to be made by learning institutions at all levels. It combines: An examination of the key difficulties hindering the development of effective political education, and how they should be addressed. A critical review of how matters such as civic reasoning, national identity, and political influence can be taught differently. An exposition of distinctive approaches that have been found to have a lasting impact on enhancing civic competence and democratic participation.
