Providing a framework for citizenship education within contexts of cultural diversity, the contributors show how human rights principles are used by schools to challenge structural inequality, discrimination and exclusion and also to support young people in developing confident identities in contexts of cultural diversity. Case studies illustrate how students can realise their rights and responsibilities as citizens.

This is a welcome and much needed text that - correctly, in my view - re-asserts the centrality of anti-racism in discussions of Citizenship and education. The authors - and Osler as editor - are to be congratulated for this committed and passionate intervention in a vital educational arena that is clearly set to become increasingly important and contested in our current political milieu. --Mr Mark Mason, University College of Chischester, HEA, 27 April 2006
Dr Audrey Osler is Professor of Education at the Univeristy of Leicester and Director of the Centre for Citizenship Studies in Education.
