Abstract
In a globalized world full of political dynamics and the need for international peace and security, political education is essential. The current literature review sought to explore the dynamics of teaching politics in education, exploring the various approaches, challenges, and best practices employed worldwide. A narrative literature review was conducted by searching of keywords in the Google search engine, filtered, reviewed, criticized, interpreted, synthesized, and reported the findings from multiple publications on the dynamics of teaching politics as a subject in schools from a global perspective. This research provides the status of political education in the world, while appreciating the dynamics of teaching politics. The consolidated information in this research allows the readers to appreciate the importance of political education in addressing the local political crises as well global thematic aspects such as climate change, security and peace.
