Abstract "There is mounting evidence throughout the world that Democracy is in retreat. This can be stopped and repaired by infusing it with action, beliefs and knowledge. This book offers a powerful prescription to stop the democracy deficit disorder: authentically engaging young people throughout our democracy. Through critical thinking and substantive actions, adults can become allies to young people. This will lead to authentic youth engagement, which will make Democracy more meaningful, purposeful, and sustainable than ever before"-- Provided by publisher.
