This book reveals the possibilities and challenges of civic education in circumstances of extreme polarization. In a time of increasing political polarization, what should the goals of civic education be, and how should they be implemented? Contributors raise a variety of crucial considerations not only about how to educate citizens in a polarized era but also for a polarized era. What types of civic learning hold promise for preparing students to navigate their way through a political landscape of escalating hostile factions, distrust, truth decay, and disagreement about basic facts? Could or should civic education attempt to reduce or counteract polarization – or should it focus on other aims?
