Abstract

In this chapter, we offer a background to the edited volume, the research project that produced it and its content - a series of investigations of the contested notions of citizenship and learning, and their interconnections. We set the agenda for exploring citizenship and learning as defined in philosophical traditions, and as experienced and described in selected locations in Tanzania and Uganda, and also introduce the contributions from the perspectives of both citizenship and conceptualizing learning.

Keywords: citizenship; citizens; learning; conceptions of learning; civic activism; civil society; concepts (notions); research
