The Making of Citizens: A Study in Comparative Education is a book written by R. E. Hughes in 1906. The book is a comparative study of education systems in different countries and their role in shaping citizens.

He argues that education is not just about imparting knowledge but also about creating citizens who are capable of participating in civic life. The book provides a detailed analysis of the different approaches to education in each country and their impact on the development of citizens. Hughes also discusses the challenges faced by educators in each country and proposes solutions for improving education. The Making of Citizens is a seminal work in the field of comparative education and remains relevant today as educators continue to grapple with the question of how to prepare students for active citizenship in a rapidly changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
