Description: A breakdown in society has caused the UK government to introduce Citizenship into schools in an attempt to re-engender the concept of community and focus on morals and values. This book offers a 'real' citizenship that is consistent with current 'Third Way' conceptions of modernity, economic individualism, entrepreneurialism, individual responsibility and community.
