There have been multiple trends of building democratic citizens through formal education, and in the European context the trials have been dramatically increased with the Europeanization process since the 1980s. In line with this trend, an in-depth qualitative case study was carried out in a private primary school in Turkey to shed light on the role of school-based extra-curricular activities as a contemporary trend in building active citizenship values and competencies in students. Qualitative data were collected through multiple data collection tools as observation field notes, interviews, and document analysis to achieve triangulation and trustworthiness. Much of the findings were compatible with EURYDICE Report (2005) on citizenship education, and yielded six themes, called the six blossoms of extra-curricular activities in citizenship education: namely, active citizenship perception; social accountability; intercultural awareness; awareness of democracy and human rights; thinking and research skills; and interaction and interpersonal skills.

The role of the state in escaping the middle-income trap: the case for smart industrial policy
Wade, Robert H. (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2016-4)
Western states and western-run international organizations have advocated the Washington Consensus development agenda for the rest of the world since the 1980s. The consensus implies that capitalist developing countries will be able to create sufficient income and wealth as to become “developed” provided the government limits itself to doing what is needed to make markets work well, and not more (for example, not industrial policy which pushes investment beyond existing comparative advantage). Yet the ...
