      Exploring the evolving relationship between education and citizenship, this book examines how democratic participation is influenced by shifting societal frameworks. It delves into theories of citizenship and education, contrasting the welfare state with neoliberalism. Drawing on the works of influential thinkers like Hobbes, Locke, and Marx, the chapters highlight contemporary multicultural approaches within educational contexts and their implications for civic engagement.
