Imagined at their best, how might professions contribute most effectively to their local and global communities, and how could higher education support graduates/future professionals in making this contribution? The answer proposed in this book is to educate students for ‘civic-mindedness’, an overarching professional capability grounded in certain dispositions and qualities, ideals, types of knowledge and political emotions. ‘Civic-mindedness’, and its internal counterpart, the practitioner’s self-cultivation, give rise to an engagement with professional practice that is authentic, civic and democratic. The tension between responsiveness or regard for others and regard for self is overcome by recognising that authentic professional identities are constructed through practices around shared purposes and ideals. Drawing on a wide range of theorists including Dewey, Arendt, and Nussbaum, professions are envisaged to play a vital role. Primarily professions support society’s well-being by ensuring access to public goods, such as local and global justice, access to information, health, education, safety, housing, the beauty and sustaining power of the ecological environment, among others. Yet professions also protect the fundamental good of citizen participation in free deliberation and decision-making on issues affecting their lives. The book concludes with a vision of higher education that is transformative of graduates/professionals, pedagogies, professional practices and communities. Issues of increasing social awareness are a key concern for anyone involved in teaching professionals and this book, which builds best practice around a sound theoretical and philosophical framework, will prove both thought-provoking and practical in application.

Young Children’s Civic Mindedness provides a well-grounded understanding of children’s civic thought and action by inviting readers to look and listen carefully to the voices of young children themselves. Grounded in research on children’s evolving civic identities and drawn from extended case studies and rich narrative vignettes, this book shows the many ways even the youngest children can be civic-minded and political. The book engages readers in thinking about the many ways children reason about and approach civic problems; how children’s experience in various local and larger contexts shapes their thinking and action; and the environmental factors that delimit what children see as possible in civic spaces. Written for early childhood, elementary and civic educators, this book encourages readers to go beyond mere rhetoric on the importance of civic education, to develop improved ways of teaching for children’s civic development.

"Declining civic engagement has been cited as an impediment to effective participatory democracy (Niemi & Junn, 1998; Putnam, 2000). After nearly twenty years of dedicated efforts and resources, American colleges and universities continue to struggle to reconcile their responsibilities between educating students for active roles in society and preparing students for employment. Twenge, Campbell, and Freeman (p.1060, 2012) found a considerable intellectual, cultural, and economic interest in discovering and predicting generational trends. They recognized that the decrease in civic engagement has generated concerns amongst educators, researchers, and community stakeholders that students and citizens over time will not develop sufficient disposition for Civic-mindedness ... This mixed-methods study, utilizing descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis, sought to examine the perceived significance of the collaboration between a Jesuit university and its community stakeholders, to co-create experiences that form Civic-mindedness (Steinberg et al., 2011)"--Abstract.
