Summary: The central message of this educational book is that democracy needs the personal contribution of committed citizens. Democracy is only viable if it is rooted in the hearts and minds of citizens who feel responsible for their own well-being and the quality of social relations. The authors stress that the development of personalised democracy and global citizenship requires participation at different levels of identity. Written for future secondary school teachers, the book contains dialogical self theory, research and a wide range of exercises.
