Citizenship Education in Multicultural Society

Abstract

Analysing the citizenship education approaches of England, the Netherlands, Canada (Ontario), and Singapore offers an interesting glimpse into how different societies handle the interplay between cultural diversity, national identity, and educational strategies. This study illuminates the shared challenges and unique responses shaped by each country’s historical, cultural, and political context. The study aims to analyse the selected issues concerning the agenda of citizenship education policy and school practices in the selected countries. The authors undertake a comprehensive review of the development of multicultural societies, and delve into an analysis, discussion, and reconstruction of the current socio-political context of citizenship education in the aforementioned countries.
