Abstract:
This thesis focuses on how social studies textbooks, authorized for use in Canadian classrooms, portray our changing world. Preparing young people for citizenship in a world that is becoming increasingly interdependent requires presenting them with a way of thinking about the world that allows for consideration of alternative perspectives. The textbook, as a major vehicle for transmitting knowledge, can play an important role in that process. Although the volume of textual accounts of world interdependence is expanding, it is contended that the themes and images presented to students tend to r

In the contemporary globalising society, citizenship has re-emerged as a key educational, social and political concept. Despite an extensive body of literature on citizenship, traditional assumptions have been called into question by worldwide social and cultural changes.

Within those discussions however, there has been scant attention to the contribution that Eastern social philosophies can make to the debates. In response to this need, this study h
