Beskrivning

This book is a retrospective analysis and a clarion call for the future. Civic education, long relegated to the margins of academic discourse, is brought back into focus here. The book explores the bare necessities of civic education, charting how generations have been prepared—or ill-prepared— to engage meaningfully with democracy. With thoughtful precision, it challenges readers to consider the unwritten rules of politics that dictate much of our collective political consciousness and the vital importance of reinvigorating civic responsibility among all Americans, inspiring and motivating readers to act. From the role of education in shaping citizens to the gradual erosion of shared democratic values, this work provides an unparalleled and comprehensive exploration of the forces that culminated in one of the darkest days in American history (by Tracy Gray).
