- Synopsis
- The concept of the new citizen is based on the notion that people are not born as citizens, but need to be educated and trained for the role. Rimmerman (public policy and political science, Hobart and William Smith College) explores some examples of that preparation in the form of grassroots mobilization and community participation, service learning, and the Internet. New Citizenship and its participatory democracy will enable the polity to confront the breakdown of civility in American politics in meaningful ways.
