With a strong focus on citizenship and the role of education in the development of social-justice oriented citizens, this book will be of great interest to researchers, academics, and postgraduate students in the fields of philosophy of education, political philosophy, educational theory, and citizenship education.

Neil Wilcock is an Honorary Research Fellow at Birkbeck College, University of London. His research interests have come to focus on the intersection between philosophy and educational theory. This has manifested as research into the methodology of political philosophy seen through the lens of education and allowed him to explore shared concepts within their framework, such as authority and freedom.
