The modern western citizen is the entitled citizen oriented by the liberalism, who has an excessive pursuit for self－interest, resulting in the public crisis. Contemporary citizenship is moving from the entitled citizen to the responsible citizen. Civic responsibility is the essential requirement of the responsible citizen. Civic responsibility points to the interests of the civic community, which is the responsibility of the civic public life. The mission of the contemporary civic responsibility education is to cultivate the strong sense of civic responsibility, to stimulate the positive civic emotion, and to improve the civic ability to participate actively. According to the civic responsibility relations, civic responsibility education covers education on the responsibility to others, the responsibility to the society, the responsibility to the country and the responsibility to the whole world.
