Includes bibliographical references (pages 205-210).

Preface; 1 A subject at last!; 2 The introducing of politics in schools (1969); 3 On bias (1977); 4 Political literacy (1978); 5 Basic concepts for political education (1978); 6 Citizenship and education (1992); 7 In defence of the Citizenship Order 2000; 8 Friendly arguments (1998); Values and rights are enough; Anti-racism should lead; World citizenship comes first; School governors, another task; Universities could help; 9 The presuppositions of citizenship education (1999); 10 The decline of political thinking in British public life (1998); 11 A meditation on democracy (1996).

Citizenship, both the subject and the practice, should be a bridge between the vocational aims of education and education for its own sake. Not all of life is productive: there is leisure, there is culture, both of which active citizens can defend, indeed enhance. This book may, I hope, help teachers and all involved in education (governors, parents and even inspectors) gain or reinforce a sense of civic pride and mission.
