Educating European Citizens (1995) explores problems and issues in citizenship education in the context of the move towards European cultural, economic and political union. An international group of educators address questions such as: the contribution of schools to the maintenance of peace and security; education beyond nationalism; and the relationship between the theory and practice of citizenship and the European dimension.

Gordon H. Bell was Principal and Chief Executive of Bretton Hall College, University of Leeds, and Director of the EC funded 'Europe in the Primary School project'.
