Abstract: In an era of increasing polarization and complexity, "The World in Us" challenges conventional approaches to global citizenship education by offering a generative, critical framework for teaching and learning. Nicholas R. D. Palmer argues that true global engagement must move toward constructive, relational, and transformative action. Drawing on a diverse range of perspectives--including Australian Indigenous thought, the philosophy of Simone Weil, and Palmer's own teaching experience--the book introduces a host of empirically grounded concepts to rethink how we navigate global interconnection. With a balance of theory and practice, Palmer provides educators with practical tools to foster meaningful, inclusive, and contextually grounded global learning experiences. "The World in Us" is essential reading for scholars, educators, and policymakers seeking to bridge divisions in the field, the classroom, and the wider world.
