""This book comes at an opportune time, when many societies around the globe are trying to find ways to educate for citizenship in a more convincing manner. This is an important book for all interested in educating for citizenship."" - John J. Cogan, Professor of Comparative Education, University of Minnesota
""What is a good citizen? Surprisingly, despite the boom of international comparative studies on citizenship education in the past decade, this fundamental question was not asked from teachers. This book fills this gap, and provides a thought-provoking analysis of teachers’ beliefs in the USA, UK, Australia, Russia and China."" - Gita Steiner-Khamsi, Professor of Comparative and International Education, Teachers College, Columbia University
""This book brings a much needed perspective to citizenship education: the centrality of teachers to the educational process. Across five distinctive national jurisdictions, the authors demonstrate that no matter how sophisticated or monolithic policies are, their main test is how they are filtered through teachers’ lenses into the classroom… This balance of policy, theory and classroom practice adds considerably to the literature on citizenship education and provides much needed lessons for academics, policymakers and teachers."" - Kerry J. Kennedy, Professor and Head of the Department of Curriculum and Instruction, The Hong Kong Institute of Education
