Learning for Cosmopolitan Citizenship: Theoretical Debates and Young People's Experiences.
Osler, Audrey; Starkey, Hugh
Educational Review, v55 n3 p243-54 Nov 2003
Interviews with 600 youth aged 10-18, many from immigrant families, explored how they learn about citizenship and define themselves and their communities. They identify strongly with their city or neighborhood but also have multiple identities, a cosmopolitan citizenship that bridges several worlds. Education for cosmopolitan citizenship should address peace, human rights, and democracy. (Contains 35 references.) (SK)
