Call for papers for the special issue (Volume 9): How can social studies relate to youth civic engagement? [Uploaded June 16, 2019]
Since its birth, social studies education has aimed to educate citizens who can create their own society. However, with the wave of globalization and information-oriented culture, the way of “create their own society,” in other words, how citizens engage in society has been changed. Kahn et al. (2015) mentioned that the traditional way called “institutional politics,” such as voting and participating political parties or civic groups, changed into “participatory politics,” which citizens directly obtain and send political information using a new digital medium or social networks. Responding to the societal change mentioned above, this special issue will tackle the question “How can social studies relate to youth civic engagement?”
