Book excerpt: Patricia White is concerned not with the machinery of democracy but with some of the virtues: hope, courage, self-respect, self-esteem, honesty, trust, friendship, decency, that individual citizens in a flourishing democracy need. Drawing on classical and contemporary philosophical literature, this new approach to citizenship education explores the democratic forms of these virtues, using a wide range of literary and real-life examples that are presented in all their complexity, including their downsides.

In this book these virtues receive detailed treatment in contemporary work in philosophy of education for the first time.
