About the book

"Teachers have the challenge of teaching for equity, justice and solidarity in plural and fast-changing societies where their students are well aware of inequality and injustice. How can schools integrate issues of citizenship, human rights and cultural diversity, and what support do they receive? Drawing on case studies frnm England, Ireland, Denmark and the Netherlands, this book examines the institutional and governmental support provided in educating for global citizenship. It looks at the contradictions students and their teachers face when they compare what is learned in school with the messages from politicians and the media about refugees and asylum seekers, young peoples rights, environmental issues and the impact of globalisation."--Jacket.
