Is Development "The New Peace"? Global Citizenship as National Obligation in Postwar Guatemala
Bellino, Michelle J.
Anthropology & Education Quarterly, v49 n4 p371-393 Dec 2018
Amid growing policy interest in global citizenship education, this ethnographic study examines one school's mission to foster global citizens among elite youth in Guatemala. Despite educators' efforts to raise awareness about local inequities and instill national identity and attachment to Guatemala, students constructed a neoliberal vision of citizenship that allowed them to disregard national politics of diversity. Instead, they focused their efforts on becoming globally competitive, often at the expense of reproducing inequality and division.
