New Book Edited by Professor Kerry Kennedy

2017-09-19

Co-edited with Beata Krzywosz-Rynkiewicz, Anna M. Zalewska, Professor Kerry Kennedy has published a book, entitled Young People and Active Citizenship in Post-Soviet Times - A Challenge for Citizenship Education.

Situated within the context of "post-soviet times", this book explores young people’s citizenship activities and values in three distinct environments: post-soviet union countries, post-soviet union satellites, and countries that were independent of the soviet-union. Its purpose is to investigate the influence of these contexts on the ways young people see their citizenship in what are now emerging democracies. Using a framework designed by Kennedy (2006) and further developed by Zalewska, Krzywosz-Rynkiewicz (2011) the study examines the citizenship values of 3794 students aged 11-14-18 from 11 European countries, and identifies significant patterns and differences.
