Abstract

Citizenship Education is an Education of Nationalism and Patriotism that aims to form a smart and good Citizen. However, the Border Area is a vulnerable area experiencing a weakening of nationalism because of its location that has direct access to neighboring countries. Among the border areas of the country are Sebatik Island, Nunukan Regency, North Kalimantan Province which is the border area of Indonesia-Malaysia. The study aims to analyze the Challenges of Citizenship Education at the Border using a case study approach. This study uses the Theory and Concept of Citizenship Education, Nationalism, and Border. The results showed that the Challenge of Citizenship Education in the Sebatik Island Border region is the use of Malaysian ringgit currency, dependence on Malaysian products, and Dual citizenship in Indonesian sovereign territory. Efforts to strengthen Nationalism through Citizenship Education in schools and the community are urgently needed in the face of the degradation of nationalism which is the challenge of Citizenship Education at the Border.
