Download or read book National Service Citizenship and Political Education written by Eric B. Gorham and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1992-09-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the issues surrounding civilian national service policy from a fresh and original perspective. The author connects national service programs to the political theories of civic republicanism and communitarianism, assesses the practical consequences of these theories, and examines past youth service programs such as the CCC and Peace Corps to see if they are appropriate models or ideals for a national program. Gorham engages the issue of compulsory versus voluntary service and questions whether service tasks can instill a sense of "citizenship" in young people, as defenders of the program claim. Using the work of Michel Foucault, Charles Taylor, Carole Pateman, and others, he suggests that national service, as presently planned, will not create the "citizen" so much as a post-industrial and gendered subject. In the concluding chapters, he presents an argument for a democratic national service and offers an alternative program for policymakers to consider.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary college students' apparent lack of exposure to citizenship, lack of concern for others, and ignorance of how to be involved citizens has prompted a call for involving students in volunteer service at the national level or as part of the undergraduate experience. This monograph begins by discussing volunteer programs as they relate to higher education including the role universities have traditionally played, and the involvement of various branches of the university community. A further section treats the characteristics and desires of contemporary college students: their environmental, economic, social, political and financial conditions; lessons of the student activism of the 1960s; and the effects of civic participation. The next section explores the economic, social, and personal aspects of volunteering and philanthropy. National service programs are the subject of the fourth section, which discusses their essential elements, congressional efforts, President Bush's proposal to create some type of volunteer service corps, and the effect of national service on higher education. The next section examines the role and action of higher education in service programs including: curricular changes; service-learning education; work-study programs; collaborative efforts between higher education, government, and the private sector; outreach opportunity leagues; campus compacts; faculty participation; and evaluating the effects of civic participation. An index and a bibliography of 140 references are included. (JB)

Download or read book National Service written by Donald J. Eberly and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What the establishment can't grasp is that you can get a better education from two years with VISTA or the Peace Corps than from four years in your major universities." Donald Eberly. The spirit of the above statement by Donald Eberly is also the guiding spirit of his proposals for national service as set forth in his recent book "National Service: A Promise to Keep." Eberly would like to bring a VISTA or Peace Corps sort of "service experience" to every young person who desires it, not only to those with specialized training or college experience. The notion that experience, especially service experience, can be highly educational & an impetus for personal growth is a root of the national service idea...Along with Eberly's interesting & informative narrative history of national service, the book contains a number of articles by Eberly & others, as well as an extensive bibliography on the subject. The sum is a fine resource for study & discussion of an important topic, one which may prove to hold solutions to many of the problems we face today & in the years to come.
