This revised and expanded edition provides an accessible, up-to-date guide to Britains laws and legal system (including the police and prisons). It also features coverage of the UKs new Human Rights Act and investigates law-making at European levels. Presented in a stimulating, full-colour magazine format, these new resources provide a ready-made solution for Citizenship Education at 13-16. In line with the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Education for Citizenship and the Teaching of Democracy in Schools, Citizenship in Focus is designed to encourage political literacy, social and moral responsibility, and community involvement. The Citizen and the Law provides accessible, up-to-date information on Britains laws and on how the courts, police and prison services operate. Democracy in Action presents students with a clear and balanced picture of how the United Kingdom is governed at local, regional, national and European levels. Human Rights encourages students to develop a sense of global citizenship by engaging with issues ranging from political freedom and economic injustice to the rights of the disabled. The new Global Concerns students book adds a crucial new global dimension to the series, helping to prepare students for life in a rapidly changing, increasingly globalised society. A new edition of the Teachers Resources , including support for Global Issues and containing 40 copymasters and detailed notes on how the whole series can help you to deliver the new national curriculum will replace the existing edition in September 2000.
