Title: | Issues of Citizenship, National Identity and Political Socialization in Singapore: Implications to the Singapore Education System | Contributor(s): | Reyes, Vicente (author) | Publication Date: | 2013 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/14545 | Abstract: | This inquiry attempts to address the question: How has the Singapore city-state used its education system in integrating three important cornerstones of nation-building? Using selected data from the National Orientations of Singaporeans Survey complemented by policy documents, this article explores three specific questions: (1) How is citizenship education pursued? (2) How is national identity forged? And (3) How is political socialization engendered? The inquiry concludes with challenges that the Singapore education system faces as it tries to address its nation-building project. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Studies of Changing Societies: Comparative and Interdisciplinary Focus, 4(10), p. 37-59 | Publisher: | East Ukrainian Society for International Studies | Place of Publication: | Ukraine | ISSN: | 2225-2215 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130302 Comparative and Cross-Cultural Education 160609 Political Theory and Political Philosophy 160602 Citizenship |
