内容説明

Most of the literature on citizenship education is silent on questions related to race, ethnicity and social-class stratification. James A. Banks aims to fill this gap. The thousands of immigrants that enter the United States each year, the increasing number of students who speak a first language other than English, and the widening gap between the rich and the poor intensify the challenge of educating students for citizenship in a democratic society. In these 11 essays, written over a 13-year period, Dr Banks describes how schools can both educate students to participate effectively in a society that reflects ethnic and cultural diversity and also promotes national unity and public good. These essays provide a comprehensive blending of the author's work in citizenship education and multicultural education. A founder of multicultural education and a past president of the National Council for the Social Studies, Dr Banks describes how the concepts, paradigms, and aims of multicultural education must become integral parts of the project to educate citizenship and to create democratic schools in free societies.
