Handbook for reflective Civic Education.

      Аннотация: This Civic Ethics Handbook for Development introduces a reflective approach to civic education focusing on the ethical aspects of democracy and development. The handbook gives a comprehensive picture of how development is related to social justice rather than mere economic growth. The book will teach the basics of civic and professional ethics. These are needed for active and reflective citizenry in building a just democratic society. The authors argue that only enlightened citizenship can guarantee efficiency and effectiveness of public and professional institutions. The book covers the themes of ethics and education, democratic values and processes, professionalism and corruption, gender and justice, civil participation, and human rights protection. While the book focuses on Tanzania, it provides a unique approach to civic education and can be used as teaching material across the African continent and beyond. The book also provides related exercises and thus, can be used either as a self-study guide or a teacher’s manual in reflective civic education.
