Abstract/Summary:
This MA thesis researched the emergence of global citizenship education (GCE) in Ontario. Data was collected from a range of people in the field of education---originators of initiatives, government officials, significant teachers (and students in their schools), teacher educators, and educational representatives of non-governmental organizations---through semi-structured interviews and case studies. Analysis showed that critiques and tensions within the fields of citizenship education and global education have led to a confluence of developments that points to the possible blossoming of an Ontario version of global citizenship education.
