There is no unique definition of global citizenship or global citizenship education, which applies to the US only or to the exclusion of other nation-states. Most global citizenship education offered in the U.S. is guided by the UNESCO (2014) characteristics discussed earlier in this paper. Likewise, Becker (1981) defined global citizens as being able to develop a global awareness to the social studies. Students should be aware of and have comprehension of the world as being inhabited by people who are viewed and treated as equals and dependent on others for their existence and for the quality of their existence. Educators have to prepare students to be citizens not only of local and national communities but of the international community as well. Gibbons and Neuman (1985) defined global citizens as having responsibilities to help to solve the problems of the world; to understand and care for others; to protect and utilize wisely our natural resources; and to promote an attitude of peaceful cooperation to resolve global problems. The real differences come from an emphasis on or bias towards democratic societies and to the informal concept of “democratic localism”.
