Global Citizenship Education: A Critical Introduction to Key Concepts and Debates

About this book

Global Citizenship Education explores key ideas and issues within local, national and global dimensions. Including examples and case studies from across the world, the authors draw on ideas, experiences and histories within and beyond 'the West' to contribute to multifaceted perspectives on global citizenship education. In concise chapters, the authors set out the key concepts and debates within the field. Global citizenship education is contextualized within key educational frameworks, including citizenship education, global education, development education and peace education. Edda Sant, Ian Davies, Karen Pashby and Lynette Shultz explore the different ways in which global citizenship can be taught, learned and assessed in formal and informal contexts. Including examples from a wide range of education institutions, chapters provide overviews of policy making and international practices borne out of different approaches to global citizenship education. With each chapter including a summary of key issues, an annotated list of key resources, an exercise for students and a further reading list, Global Citizenship Education will aid understanding of this complex and debated area of study.

PART ONE
Key 
Questions, 
Concepts 
and 
Dimensions
I
n 
this 
section 
of 
the 
book, 
there 
are 
eight 
chapters 
that 
explore 
funda-
mental 
matters. 
These 
eight 
chapters 
are 
loosely 
in 
three 
groups. 
The 
first 
group 
contains 
two 
chapters 
in 
which 
we 
ask 
‘why 
global 
citizenship’ 
and 
then 
‘why 
global 
citizenship 
education’. 
The 
second 
group 
comprises 
three 
chapters 
in 
which 
the 
building 
blocks 
of 
global 
citizenship 
education 
are 
dis-
cussed: rights 
and 
duties; 
global 
communities 
and 
identities. 
Finally, 
there 
are 
three 
chapters 
in 
which 
there 
are 
discussions 
from 
a 
conceptual/geographical 
focus: local, 
national, 
and 
planetary. 
By 
the 
end 
of 
this 
section, 
you 
will 
have 
a 
clear 
understanding 
of 
the 
fundamental 
matters 
that 
characterize 
global 
citi-
zenship 
education.
