Abstract

The state defense is an obligation that must be carried out by all citizens. Entering the third millennium the flow of information quickly enters Indonesia and makes everything easier, this also harms the inclusion of external values that are incompatible with Indonesia’s character which has become an increase in radicalism, use of narcotics, and deviations in people’s behavior so that it will have an impact on the spirit of defending the country for the younger generation, This article examines how citizenship education can strengthen the spirit of defending the country for the younger generation. The approach used in this article is a qualitative approach with a literature study method. Civic education is the right vehicle for developing and strengthening the spirit of defending the country by instilling the importance of self-awareness and pride in the country as an approach to learning through the five basic values of defending the country, namely 1) Love for the country; 2) Awareness of the nation and state; 3) Believe in Pancasila as the state ideology; 4) Willingness to sacrifice for the nation and state, and 5) Having the initial ability to defend the country. State defense education by linking to civic education material will strengthen the process of transferring the basic values of state defense so that the spirit of state defense will be embedded and internalized to the maximum of the souls of students which will strengthen the life of the Indonesian state.
