It offers a geopolitical lens to explore historical and contemporary debates, emphasizing the renewed focus on values and virtues like grit, gumption, perseverance, resilience, generosity, and neighborliness. Through a detailed examination of the 'character agenda' in England, the book explores its multiscalar geographies, tracing the evolution of moral geographies of education for children and young people. Drawing on original research and examples from schools, military and uniformed youth organizations, and the state-led National Citizen Service, the book critically examines the broader implications of the 'character agenda' across the UK and beyond. It raises thought-provoking questions about the interconnections between character, citizenship, and values, highlighting how these moral geographies extend far beyond the classroom or campsite. Offering critical insights into the roles of character, citizenship, and values in modern education, this book is a valuable resource for educationists, teachers, policymakers, and students and scholars of human geography, sociology, education studies, cultural studies, and history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 431g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781138300828\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SarahMills","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104691155194,"sku":"9781138300828","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646114194167_book.jpg?v=1646637482","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/mapping-the-moral-geographies-of-education-character-citizenship-and-values-9781138300828","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
