"Why are we learning this ?" : Does studying Holocaust Encourage better citizenship values ? Année de publication: 2008 Auteur: Henry Maitles The relationship between learning about the Holocaust and the development of positive values may seem common sense, but in reality there is a complex level of development and understanding. The research reported here, which was sponsored by the Scottish government, was designed to ascertain whether learning about the Holocaust has an impact on young people’s general citizenship values and attitudes; does learning about the Holocaust allow them to extrapolate from the events of the Holocaust to present-day issues, such as racism and discrimination? The study followed a cohort of approximately 100 pupils (aged 11–12) who had studied the Holocaust and compared their values one year later both to their earlier attitudes and to those of their peers who had not studied the Holocaust. As we might expect, the results were not always as predicted, particularly when it came to the pupils’ understanding of anti-Semitism or genocide; in general, however, the study’s core group maintained more positive values than they had before their lessons on the Holocaust and showed more positive values than their peers who had not studied the Holocaust.

This issue is about the promise, practice, power and potential of Holocaust Education. The Coverage of the Holocaust in High School History textbooks Année de publication: 2009 Auteur: David H. Lindquist The Holocaust is now a regular part of high school history curricula throughout the United States and, as a result, coverage of the Holocaust has become a standard feature of high school textbooks. As with any major event, it is important for textbooks to provide a rigorously accurate and valid historical account. In dealing with the Holocaust, however, textbook authors face particular challenges. The Holocaust had complex causes, both immediate and long-term; different groups played roles in perpetrating or assisting it; and the meticulous accuracy required in detailing its occurrence imposes many demands on authors. Unlike many other events listed in history textbooks, students have often heard of the Holocaust and may bring considerable prior conceptions of it to the classroom but many of these impressions may come from sources for whom historical accuracy is of little concern. Textbooks are often the first recourse for teachers and students interested in dispelling inaccurate notions and seeking to acquire valid knowledge. In addition, the existence of Holocaust denial makes it crucial that textbook narratives should be completely accurate because deniers often contend that the presence of any error calls into question the actual occurrence of the Holocaust. This article presents the results of a study the author conducted of the treatment of the Holocaust in major history textbooks. While the textbooks provide substantial coverage of the Holocaust, there are also problems in the coverage that can foster inaccurate perspectives about the event. The author recommends that substantive changes be made in future editions of these textbooks to ensure that accurate, comprehensive Holocaust units are presented to students.

Année de publication: 2007 Auteur: Paula Cowan | Henry Maitles Previous research on teaching the Holocaust, primarily case studies in either the primary or the secondary sectors, suggests that Holocaust education can contribute to pupils' citizenship values in a positive way. Yet, in common with other initiatives, this evidence focuses exclusively on the short term impact of Holocaust education. Our ongoing longitudinal research is concerned with both the immediate and longer term effects of Holocaust education on pupils' values and attitudes. Initially focused on primary pupils aged 11–12 years, it has followed them into the first year of secondary to examine whether the general improvements in attitudes found in the first stage of the research has been maintained. Further, we are able to compare their attitudes with pupils in their year who did not study the Holocaust in their primary schools. This article draws conclusions from this study. (By the author)

Participation and Exercising Pupils’ Citizenship at French-Language Elementary School in Ontario Année de publication: 2018 Auteur: Nathalie Bélanger Auteur institutionnel: Lien social et Politiques This article first describes the evolution which allowed the child to be considered as an actor. In this vein, citizenship education programs at school are discussed, although they do not often take into account exercising citizenship in the school context and children’s voice. Research results from a broader project on how students represent their school experience in French-language schools in Ontario are analyzed specifically with respect to what a welcoming school means for them. The methodology uses an inductive approach and the data were gathered from administering a questionnaire designed for children, observation and semi-directed interviews. The results show the impact of school culture and school form on the exercise of students' citizenship, the topics they address, their concerns and priorities. The greater the predominance of settlement and integration issues are, the less the exercise of citizenship includes deliberative opportunities regarding school functioning. Participation et exercice de la citoyenneté des élèves à l’école Année de publication: 2018 Auteur: Nathalie Bélanger Auteur institutionnel: Lien social et Politiques Cet article retrace les courants théoriques qui permettent de penser l’enfant en tant que sujet et donne la parole aux enfants au sujet de leur expérience scolaire. Dans ce contexte, des programmes d’éducation à la citoyenneté sont apparus, sans toutefois que l’exercice de la citoyenneté des élèves et leur prise de parole soient pris en compte et valorisés. Pour y remédier, il s’agit d’interroger des élèves au sujet de ce que représente pour eux une école accueillante. La méthodologie recourt à une approche inductive et les données ont été recueillies à partir de l’administration d’un questionnaire conçu pour des enfants, d’observation et d’entretiens semi-dirigés. Les résultats montrent l’incidence de la culture de l’école et de la forme scolaire sur l’exercice de la citoyenneté des élèves, sur les thèmes qu’ils abordent, les soucis et les priorités qui sont les leurs. Plus les enjeux d’installation et d’intégration sont prédominants, moins l’exercice de la citoyenneté inclut de possibilités délibératives quant au fonctionnement scolaire. Perceptions of the Holocaust in Europe and Muslim communities : Sources, Comparisons and Educational challenges Année de publication: 2012 Auteur: Gunther Jikeli | Joëlle Allouche-Benayoun The way people think about the Holocaust is changing. The particular nature of the transformation depends on people’s historical perspectives and how they position themselves and their nation or community vis-à-vis the tragedy. Understandably, European Muslims perceive the Holocaust as less central to their history than do other Europeans. Yet while the acknowledgement and commemoration of the horrors of the Holocaust are increasingly important in Europe, Holocaust denial and biased views on the Holocaust are widespread in European Muslims’ countries of origin. In this book, a number of distinguished scholars and educators of various backgrounds discuss views of the Holocaust. Problematic views are often influenced by a persistent attitude of Holocaust denial, which is derived, in part, from discourses in the Muslim communities in their countries of origin. The essays collected here explore the backgrounds of these perceptions and highlight positive approaches and developments. Many of the contributions were written by people working in the field and reflecting on their experiences. This collection also reveals that problematic views of the Holocaust are not limited to Muslim communities. (By the publisher) 
The Democratic Enigma Année de publication: 2014 Auteur: Philip Pettit Auteur institutionnel: Philosophiques Democracy means popular control, by almost all accounts. And by almost all accounts democracy entails legitimacy. But popular control, at least as that is understood in many discussions, does not entail legitimacy. So something has got to give. Democratic theories divide on what this is, so that the question prompts a taxonomy of approaches. The most appealing answer, so the paper suggests, involves a reinterpretation of the notion of popular control.
