From the Second World War to the present day, debates about civic education and democracy have raged in the country: this book demonstrates how citizens, social movements and political elites have articulated their own notions of democracy. Civic education illustrates democracy as an essentially contested concept – the transmission of political ideals highlights conflicting democratic values and a problem of paternalism. Ultimately, who dictates what democracy is, and to whom? As expectations of citizens rise, they are viewed more and more as objects of a pedagogical project, itself a controversial notion. Focusing on what democracy means practically in society, this book will be of interest to scholars of citizenship education and post-war Dutch political history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52915066011927,"sku":null,"price":12080.49,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/9783030562984.jpg?v=1781525794","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/ur\/products\/civic-education-and-contested-democracy-9783030562984","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
