Introduction to Political Citizenship

About this Course

This course aims to offer a deeper comprehension of the features and complexities of citizenship in today\'s globalized world, while also fostering the development of critical thinking. Whether you are already familiar with the notion of citizenship or not, this course offers you fresh insights into some of the key contemporary challenges surrounding citizenship and their far-reaching social impacts on citizens.
