DEVELOPMENT OF THE IDEA OF CITIZENSHIP FORMATION IN DOMESTIC PEDAGOGICAL THOUGHT

This article examines the problem of developing the idea of forming citizenship in domestic pedagogical thought. The need for the formation of citizenship is motivated, aimed at educating the individual, developing personal traits and qualities, world-view, feelings, actions and norms of behaviour, way of thinking aimed at self-development and development of democratic civil society in Ukraine. The categories “citizenship”, “civil position”, “rule of law” are specified in pedagogical and socio-pedagogical aspects.Today in Ukraine, we can observe both trends in the development of ideas of citizenship – on the one hand, the processes of state formation require unity based on the formation of civic qualities of the community, manifestations of citizenship and appropriate actions towards the idea of statehood. It is considered that these tendencies can develop in two ways – confrontation, intolerance or dialogue, a constructive approach to solving problems. The analysis of civic education development in the national pedagogical thought is provided by the author.Civic education is illustrated by changes in the goals, content and methods of organizing the activities of the subjects of the educational process. The essence of civic education is characterized by systematic, purposeful, social, planned and systematic motivation. As shown in the article, most of the existing educational systems and programs for the education of student youth are focused on the development of critical thinking, independent search for meaning in life and the development of skills of active behaviour. These changes make new demands on the implementation of the process of civic education of student youth in higher education, on the individual as a whole, able to understand and independently implement the basic ideas of competence-oriented education. Accordingly, the formation of citizenship aims at educating the individual, developing personality traits and qualities, world-view, feelings, actions and norms of behaviour, way of thinking aimed at self-development and development of democratic civil society in Ukraine.
 Keywords: citizenship; civic education; civic self-awareness; civil position; civic behaviour; rule of law; personality education; democratic civil society.

Domestication of Difference: Practices of Civic Engagement among Middle Eastern Christians in Denmark

This article employs Hage’s concept of “domestication” as a lens for understanding how various forms of civic engagement among Coptic, Assyrian, and Chaldean Christian migrant communities in Denmark reproduce and contest a Danish model of citizenship, a particular construction of both the national subject and its Others. While churches are a primary place for civic engagement among Middle Eastern Christians as an ethnoreligious group, internally in the communities three modalities of civic engagement—serving, committing, and consuming—are practiced. Each produces different manifestations of citizenship because they engage with the local, national, and transnational differently. Christians of Middle Eastern origin are not publicly visible as political or activist groups as they, along with other immigrant groups, are expected to immerse themselves into the Danish model where ethnic and cultural differences are acknowledged but disregarded of their original context and its power relations.

A cidade como o espaço do habitar e a ideia da fábrica de cidades

A cidadania do habitar é um desafio do Estado, dos Governos e da própria Sociedade. Portanto, as políticas públicas urbanas, especificamente as do habitar, devem ter orientação e ação, para que se tornem viáveis ou concretas. Assim, a questão de estudo que se quer discutir, tem a cidade como local de manifestação da cidadania e do exercício dos direitos sociais, pela garantia de acesso a habitação, transformado no local onde o cidadão habita (mora, vive, convive e se manifesta). Nesse sentido, em que aspectos essa perspectiva de garantia de acesso a habitação, pode ser garantida ou melhorada? O objetivo foi discutir sobre o construto da fábrica de cidades, elementos e orientações, para a garantia da cidadania do habitar, em sua perspectiva de espaço habitacional na esfera municipal (cidades ou bairros). Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória qualitativa, sobre dados secundários, no sentido de explorar e construir o construto das fábricas de cidades. Assim, o construto das fábricas de cidades, para a sequência deste estudo, envolve uma política pública (projeto e programa) para a construção de espaços (cidades ou bairros) que serão os locais para o exercício da cidadania do habitar, contemplando em sua orientação os conceitos, princípios e elementos de cidades ou espaços autossustentáveis e inteligentes (smart cities) e seus elementos de execução, de forma que a cidadania do habitar, ao ser construída, tenha a participação e legitimidade dos atores sociais, que irão desfrutar desse espaço.

TRANSLATION OF SOCIAL CITIZENSHIP TO ARCHITECTURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT: A METHODOLOGICAL REVIEW

Social Citizenship is a concept that is used to represent acceptance and identity by the local community. This is a manifestation expressed in the form of space, monument or buildings. Buildings such as mosques and other religious buildings are a form of manifestation to such expression left for other generations to see and study. This manifestation of citizenship through religious buildings can be an expression of struggle, establishment, sense of belonging and local acceptance towards achieving social citizenship. The understanding of this concept implicitly shows that these elements are the driving forces behind the architecture that is erected in order to find approval from the local population. This paper reviews the employed research designs, methods and procedures in the process of understanding the translation of social citizenship to architecture expressed by mosques. The methods adopted were aimed toward obtaining archival/historical evidence that can elicit proof of the concept. The methods also involved the process of inquiry that would be the basis for discussion and to draw a conclusion to the relationship between social citizenship and architecture. This paper also highlights the strengths and limitations of the methodological techniques besides spelling out the variables needed to prove the relationship.

Private Black colleges’ encouragement of student giving and volunteerism: An examination of prosocial behavior development

Colleges and university missions often espouse ideals such as creating an active and engaged citizen. The concept, principles and manifestation of citizenship can take many forms. One such form is that of prosocial behavior, or voluntary actions towards others. Philanthropy is one example of prosocial behavior. This study enhances our knowledge of how institutions instill the idea of ‘giving back’ in students and why young people decide to support higher education through a case study of the United Negro College Fund's (UNCF) National Pre-Alumni Council (NPAC). Guided by prosocial behavior theory this case study explores how NPAC instills the importance of giving to students and what influences participants’ philanthropic behaviors. The major findings include how NPAC instills prosocial behaviors in a way that (1) is correct for their developmental stage and age group, using a combination of extrinsic and intrinsic motivations; (2) educates student on being philanthropic and the need for personal and alumni support of the UNCF and Black colleges; and (3) acknowledges the African-American experience, by encouraging service within the surrounding communities and tying their work to messages of racial and community uplift. The study includes 25 interviews of NPAC participants and advisors from 13 institutions, representing one-third of the UNCF.

Citizenship and Mediated Society

This paper challenges the idea of the liberating potential of information and communication technologies in terms of their meaning related to citizenship. It shows that the mechanisms that are supposedly conducive to the democratization of society can function as the mechanisms of exclusion of citizens. Adopting the critical-cultural perspective applied to issues of consumerism and their relations to citizens in media environment, the paper addresses the mediated appearances and manifestations of citizenship. The line dividing “old” from “new” media that is commonly used to apply to new media their participatory democratic potential lacks a reflection that would more explicitly admit new media limitations. These, when seen more in depth, appear as comparable to those of mass media. If in the beginning of the 1990s the Internet was embraced as truly enhancing political action, today its consumer realities, together with the spread of racism and xenophobia, need to be critically studied. As studies have shown, the Internet increasingly encourages the individual to look for private solutions to the problems of public nature which contributes to the understanding of citizenship not as a public but predominantly as a private affair. If cyberspace is becoming a vital link for new social movements and different groups of political activists, when seen from a broader citizenship perspective, the Internet has to be discussed also with regards to its limited democratic potential.

Housing management matters: Citizenship and managerialism in the new welfare market

This paper addresses three neglected issues in the restructuring of housing policy and provision in the UK in the 1980s and 1990s: first, the relationship between welfare restructuring and management regimes; second, the nature of local variations in the impact of welfare restructuring; and third, the significance of human agency interpretations of change. The paper starts by summarizing the main features of welfare state restructuring and then considers recent manifestations of citizenship and managerialism in housing. Three competing conceptions of citizenship rights are used to examine changing notions of welfare: “market efficiency”, “institutionalized rights” and the “radical challenge” provided by social movements. A four-part typology of the main concepts and themes in the “new public management”—“efficiency”, “downsizing and decentralization”, “excellence” and “public service”—is used to present the main components of change in management regimes. The paper draws on literatures on housing management, citizenship and “the new public management” and on recent research into tenant participation, housing rights and housing advice services. Conclusions are drawn about how tensions between different conceptions of citizenship and public management are implicated with national and global influences at the local level to create particular welfare outcomes.
