Description
Political education in the Federal Republic of Germany is currently facing completely new challenges. One of the most fundamental is associated with the term ‘globalization’ – a central, perhaps even the key, category of social scientific discussions at the beginning of the third millennium. On the one hand, political education deals with the topic of ‘globalization’. On the other hand, it is itself affected by the globalization process and must respond to it by adapting or modernizing its structures. If one looks at political education work solely from the perspective of economic utility, its end is foreseeable. However, in view of globalization, it is more necessary than ever and far too important for maintaining democracy and decent living conditions to be left to the rampage of market forces.
