This book offers educators an approach to developing intercultural citizenship and illustrates ways in which teachers and learners can cooperate to develop an openness and willingness to learn about others and to resolve conflicts peacefully. The world today desperately needs more citizens competent to do just this. * Alvino E. Fantini, School for International Training, USA * Foreign language education for intercultural citizenship is a bold and beautiful idea. Those who care about globalisation and its consequences, and foreign language education and its cultural dimensions, are strongly advised to read this book and join Michael Byram's global club of teacher-researchers who have the vision and courage to implement that bold and beautiful idea in the classroom. * Youzhong Sun, Beijing Foreign Studies University, China * This international research-led anthology on teaching and learning about intercultural democratic citizenship through language education is important, timely, and practical in an increasingly interconnected world. The chapters, developed by language teacher-researchers from the CULTNET network (Durham University, UK), offer new theoretical and practical innovations for language educators everywhere as they seek to develop intercultural understanding and active citizenship in their language learners. * Prue Holmes, Durham University, UK * This volume is a valuable academic resource. The authors give a very detailed
description of the projects for other researchers to implement the studies. They also show the challenges encountered in various intercultural contexts and find ways to overcome them. Related future research directions are also proposed in order to enable other scholars and researchers to develop intercultural competence and intercultural citizenship in their own language learners. -- Jiang Hui, Liaoning Normal University, China * Language and Intercultural Communication, 2017 * This volume is a valuable academic resource.

Those theoretical and practical innovations of intercultural citizenship education offer a valuable and compelling foundation for teachers and educators who seek to develop language learners' understanding of intercultural citizenship. -- Renzhong Peng and Rongrong Fu, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China * System 66 (2017) *
