    Increasingly countries around the world are promoting forms of "critical" citizenship in the planned curricula of schools. However, the intended meaning behind this term varies markedly and can range from a set of creative and technical skills under the label "critical thinking" to a desire to encourage engagement, action and political emancipation, often labelled "critical pedagogy". This paper distinguishes these manifestations of the "critical" and, based on an analysis of the prevailing models of critical pedagogy and citizenship education, develops a conceptual framework for analysing and comparing the nature of critical citizenship

    PartiRep II Longitudinal Electoral Survey

    The main purpose of this survey is to gauge citizens' political attitudes, their political behavior (participation, voting behaviour), and changes in these factors during the campaign. To detect these changes, this survey includes two waves. The first wave (administered before the elections) consists of a face-to-face survey of residents of Flanders and Wallonia who were entitled to vote in the elections of May 25, 2014, and whose age did not exceed 85 years. This age limit was introduced to reduce non-response due to physical or mental inability. Wave 1 was conducted from March 20 until May 17, 2014. It includes a total of 2019 respondents, which corresponds to 45% of the addresses initially provided by the National Register. The second wave (administered after the elections) consists of a telephone survey of all wave 1 participants. It was conducted from May 26 until July 1, 2014. It includes 1532 observations, which corresponds to 76% of the observations in wave 1
