The next volume in the World Citizen Comics series,Re: Constitutions explains the role constitutions play in how government is structured and provides context for the modern issues that arise from these documents. Marcus is stumped by a summer assignment: to write an essay on what it means to be a citizen. He's surprised to hear from people in his community that constitutions play an important role when it comes to citizenship--they can even affect whether you feel like you belong in your country or not. From a Kosovo Albanian neighbor to a Rwandan exchange student, and even in his own family history, Marcus discovers stories of how constitutions--including the U.S. Constitution--shape the political landscape and our daily lives. From Beka Feathers, an expert in post-conflict institution building, and Kasia Babis, an accomplished political cartoonist, comes a graphic novel that gives context to the modern issues that arise from constitutions. With historical examples from all over the world,Re: Constitutions examines how this essential document defines a nation's identity and the rights of its citizens.… (plus d'informations)

A nice overview of citizenship and how constitutions work. I thought I would get bored since it does the familiar educational trope of following a teenager around as he talks to people to gather information and opinions for a school paper he needs to write. But he talks to a lot of interesting people in his neighborhood, giving us glimpses of life in Kosovo, Argentina, Kenya and Rwanda in addition to the U.S.

I worry it may have too many talking heads for its target teen audience, but I'm a history nerd, so it worked for me. ( )
