Professor Reviews
"Overall, James Banks’ edited book provides thought provoking articles on the complex configuration of citizenship education in the global context.  Graduate students who are interested in multicultural and international education would immensely benefit from the book since it emphasizes extensive research in the fields."--Binaya Subedi , Ohio State University (Anthropology and Education Quarterly, Sept. 2005)

“Diversity and Citizenship Education is a brilliant achievement. It addresses with breathtaking sophistication and depth one of most fundamental problems of our times: what is the role of citizenship education in the Millennium of globalization and diversity? Professor Banks has gathered an impressive group of scholars, among the very best in the world, in a volume destined to become the standard reference in the field.”--Marcelo M. Suarez-Orozco, Victor S. Thomas Professor of Education, Harvard University
and co-director of the Harvard Immigration Projects

“This book brings together cutting edge scholarship on the intersection of multicultural and citizenship education with rich descriptions of the varied meanings and experiences in differing national contexts. It is a fascinating read!”– Carole L. Hahn, Professor of Education, Emory University

“The international authors of Diversity and Citizenship Education tackle knotty problems but leave readers with hope in facing the many challenges that lie ahead if we are serious about promoting justice and equity through education. This terrific and informative book is sure to be of great help to educators.”– Sonia Nieto, School of Education, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
