ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the substantive complexities of citizenship by critically examining some of the key themes that run through the national curriculum Order for Citizenship. This is done under three broad thematic headings:
● Law, democracy and government ● Business and the world of finance ● Globalisation: human rights, development education and education for sustain-
able development
This chapter might usefully be read with those on developing schemes of work (Chapter 9), on resources (Chapter 11) and on active participation in citizenship (Chapter 12).
