About the Book

Citizenship education is currently the subject of worldwide attention, and this book reports on research work in a range of countries including South Africa, Finland, Portugal, Argentina, Australia, the US and Canada. Contributors address broad questions of the different ways on which educational feminism has approached the issues of democratic values, and also specific questions such as teachers' gendered construction of the citizen, boys' and girls' understanding of national identity and the representations of women and gender relations in classical and modern school textbooks.
