      abstract = {This book reports the results of a study of educational  practices at the college level that prepare students for  high quality democratic participation. Drawing on both  quantitative and qualitative data from this study, the book  articulates the most important goals of education for  democratic participation, as they play out in practice, and  provides rich accounts of key educational strategies that  can be used to accomplish these goals. It also offers a  theoretical statement of the importance, legitimacy, and  feasibility of educating for democratic participation as  well as a practical handbook, providing clear guidance to  faculty and administrators wishing to help their students  gain the understanding, skills, and motivation they need to  be fully engaged in political life, broadly defined.},
