Revive Democracy through Education
Democracy is struggling in America. Citizens increasingly feel cynical about an intractable political system, while hyper-partisanship has dramatically shrank common ground and intensified the extremes.
Teaching Citizens to Hope
Philosopher of education Sarah M. Stitzlein seeks to revive democracy by teaching citizens how to hope. This book offers an informed call to citizen engagement, directly addressing presidential campaigns and how to select candidates who support citizens in enacting and sustaining hope.
Cultivating Hope in Schools and Communities
Drawing on examples from American history and pragmatist philosophy, this book explains how hope can be cultivated in schools and sustained through action in our communities. It describes what hope is, why it matters to democracy, and how to teach it.
