For a 93 page booklet, this packs quite a bit of information. I had to pause every couple of pages to absorb the concepts. A great overview for leaders and Scouts alike. I was surprised at the discussions on Communism and Human Rights that the author(s) indulged in pointing out flaws; even with Capitalism. It seemed to be fairly balanced. Lesson taught: We need to be conscious of human conditions throughout our world and while being tolerant and understanding, work to promote the rights of all people.

A good overview to assist in understanding the world around us and how we play a part in being a citizen of the world. It is difficult to keep updated as the world continues to change, but a good job in providing basic information.

Citizenship in the World was about how to be a good citizen in the world and about international government and associations. It taught me all the things I needed to know for my Citizenship in the World merit badge. I highly recommend this book to scouts.

This one was not very true to its name. Should be updated to focus more on global concepts (unless it has in the last 10 years, which is possible).
