ABSTRACT

The citizen and the state, or should it be the state and the citizen? A citizen’s rights and responsibilities, or should it be responsibilities and rights? The citizen’s right to know, or the state’s right to keep a secret? Confused? Getting into a state over it? Is that what this part is about? Questions, questions and more questions. What the student of citizenship needs is answers, answers and more answers, and Part 1 sets out to help provide some of these answers.
