Abstract

This book examines multiple disruptive processes and the imperative to redesign civic education that will assist young people to cope with uncertainty generated by the intersection of these processes. It identifies multiple and intersecting disruptions influencing young people and the worlds in which they live and indicates how future constructions of education are likely to impact young people and the extent to which they can assist with issues of life uncertainty. Additionally, this book develops a new agenda for future educational values and suggests ways in which civic education can be redeveloped to support young people across political systems facing uncertainties. It serves as a valuable reference for universities globally and their courses in the specific area of civic and citizenship education, as well as comparative education, development education, and international education.
