The Unmaking of American Citizenship

This book explores the ideologies and educational and cultural trends that have alienated Americans from their own country and offers a guide to the restoration of American citizenship. The authors examine the causes of decline in American citizenship and offer new ways of thinking that address the short sightedness of both the Left and the Right. Applying the lens of political theory, political science, American political development, institutionalism, this book will be of interest to students, educators, policy makers, and activists interested in citizenship and civic education.
