| Description: |
This work examines the education of citizens in a democracy and how we may foster certain virtues, values and dispositions in children that will serve democratic life. |
| Synopsis: |
Drawing on classical and contemporary philosophical literature, this approach to citizenship education explores the democratic forms of these virtues, using a wide range of literary and real-life examples that are presented in all their complexity, including their downsides. In this way, it illuminates the ways in which these virtues might be fostered in a democratic society by whole school policies and by individual teachers. In this book, these virtues receive detailed treatment in contemporary work in the philosophy of education. |
