Engaging Citizenship uses one key concept-citizenship-as a gateway to teach students about the subfields of political science. Students are introduced to the critical questions, concepts, and theories addressed by each subfield, framed through the lens of citizenship in a way that helps students build connections across all chapters. Covering all major subfields of Political Science, the book introduces students to the broad scope of the discipline and the different ways each subfield studies key questions of politics, democracy, and citizenship. In addition, the text emphasizes student-centered active learning pedagogy-civic engagement activities throughout the text allow students to cultivate the skills needed for democratic citizenship. Through this innovative approach, Engaging Citizenship conveys the importance and value of democratic engagement and highlights the relevance of politics to students' lives.
