Educating Democratic Citizens in Troubled Times by Janet S. Bixby PDF Summary

Book Description: This book offers a groundbreaking examination of citizenship education programs that serve contemporary youth in schools and communities across the United States.

The book takes an interdisciplinary approach to exploring the experiences and perspectives of educators and youth involved in these civic education efforts. The contributors offer rich analyses of how mainstream and alternative programs are envisioned and enacted, and the most important factors that shape them. A variety of theoretical lenses and qualitative methodologies are used, including ethnography, focus group interviews, and content analyses of textbooks.
