Biography

Orit Ichilov is a former chair of the Department of Educational Sciences at Tel-Aviv University. Her research has focused on political socialization and political education, and her publications include Citizenship and Citizenship Education in a Changing World (1998).

'Could a book on 'the political socialization of Israeli and Palestinian youngsters' have any relevance for European citizenship educators? Absolutely. Orit Ichilov proved it in 2004 with the publication of Political Learning and Citizenship Education under Conflict. Despite the many obvious differences between Europe and Israel, there is much to be learned from a region that is in many respects much more explosive than our own.'

'...Offers many stimulating insights. There is much to be learned for Europeans with an interest in citizenship education from the experiences in Israel.'
