Educating for Individual Freedom and Democratic Citizenship: In Unity and Diversity There Is Strength %K Citizenship Education %K individual freedom %K multiculturalism %K civic equality %K democracy %R %X This article addresses contentious questions concerning individual freedom and democratic citizenship education in the contemporary circumstances of multiculturalism. It suggests that educating children for civic equality is an ambitious aim for any democracy and not one that can ever be realized once and for all. It provides evidence that multicultural conditions can challenge the very aim of educating children for civic equality.
