What Is Civics, and Why Does It Matter?

What is civics, and why should every citizen understand it? In this lecture, we look at how citizens, governments, rights and responsibilities fit together, and why understanding how a society is run is the first step to taking part in it. This lecture is for students, but it's useful for anyone who wants a clear introduction to civics and civic education.
