Abstract

The paper introduces the approach of inclusive citizenship education on different levels. Due to the increased devaluation of certain social groups in the majority society and a corresponding influence on the civic and political culture in democratic everyday life, we will first discuss inclusive citizenship education from a social constructivist and critical race theory perspective. Based on this, we will look at the influence of the socio-political framework and related norms on learner perspectives. In the next step, an empirical-explorative study design will be used to examine inclusion and exclusion processes in civic and citizenship education from the learner perspective (students and student teachers) - here in relation to the connection between an individual learning experience in mentoring (relational experience) and civic and citizenship education at the interface between developmental psychology, political culture research and civic and citizenship education. The question is asked to what extent this experience could be described as an inclusion process for primary school children with an experience of exclusion and what new insights arise in this context for the inclusive citizenship education approach. In addition to the aforementioned group, ideas of student teachers, as prospective teachers, can also be chosen as the object of didactic consideration. From a theoretical perspective, approaches from critical race theory will be used and interwoven with the concept of inclusive citizenship education.
