  • The importance of schools commitment to multicultural/intercultural education : the case study of interethnic violence in Slovenian school
    Zadel, Maja, 1985- ; Medarić, Zorana
    In the paper we discuss the main findings of the research on interethnic violence in the school environment in Slovenia with special emphasis on the educators role as well as the schools commitment ... to promoting nonviolence and wellbeing of pupils and students regardless of their ethnic background. We present quantitative and qualitative findings of the research from three perspectives: opinions and experiences of pupils, perceptions of educators and perspectives of experts dealing with (interethnic) peer violence. Special emphasis is put on the perceptions of school environment, experiences of interethnic violence, interventions in cases of violence in schools as well as its prevention. Despite general acceptance of principles of multicultural/intercultural education in Slovenian schools as well as initiative and hard work of individual educators, a coordinated and integrated approach is needed for both, dealing with (interethnic) violence as well as transmitting values of intercultural coexistence in schools
