Descrizione:Citizenship education is one of the most relevant topics in education. It comprises key aspects of the student’s personal and social behavior, and has significant points of convergence with other areas of the educational practice. Democracy is emphasized in this paper as an important feature of citizenship education, which requires special attention in terms of its socio-educational approach. Citizenship education may be studied from different scientific disciplines; in this case, the pedagogical approach is studied from the social perspective. The main objective of this paper is to discuss the theoretical basis on the subject matter of this project, through studies conducted in different contexts of the social sciences, underlining the importance of citizenship education today, regardless of the educational level in which it is taught. Analysis-synthesis and historical-logical methods were used to assess the background on the subject, obtaining results that could be developed in the educational institutions, in the future.
