“What is unique about intercultural Citizenship Education?” Alexandria, December 17, 2012

Introductory Assumptions Identity – Personal / individual – Complex, flexible, multidimensional (different spheres of belonging) Diversity – Fact that needs to be accepted, acknowledged, valued, promoted and managed (denial that generates) Cultural diversity is as a source of exchange, innovation and creativity (UNESCO declaration, 2001, Art. 1) – Education as capacity building about diversity management on the citizenship level Citizenship – Geographical area, Sociopolitical framework (City, Country, Region [Arab, Europe?]; Euromed) – Attitude, awareness, behavior (based on rights [civil, political, social]; freedoms; participation; values) Intercultural citizenship education – Empowering and Stimulating people to contribbute to social cohesion and cultural enrichment with respect for diversity and on the basis of equality (Steven++).

Ideological Monolithic citizenship No place for diversity ideology of a monolithic national identity and static public values No intermediate level between citizen and state Melting pot process

Humanistic Citizenship Holistic understanding of Humanity Respect for the individual uniqueness No intermediate level between citizen and state “Glocal” identification process

Communitarian Citizenship Only one culture is recognized as reference for the public sphere No chance for real intercultural relations and contribution to the public life Citizenship and political participation are understood in a dualistic approach (with / against ; within / outside…) Communitarianism process - discrimination

Multicultural Citizenship Recognition of the cultural dimension of the citizen’s identity Respect for the cultural diversity without chance for social contribution toleration from the mainstream national community towards minorities Risk of Ghettoisation and communitarian process and tyranny of minority on its followers

Intercultural Citizenship Recognition of the cultural dimension of the citizen’s identity Beyond tolerance, recognition of the contribution of each culture to the society The citizenship culture built through an ongoing intercultural dialogue and identification of shared public values

Intercultural Citizenship
