Notes

1 The international comparative study ‘Divided Education, Divided Citizens?’ (DEDC) was conducted by the Network of Education Policy Centers in Bosnia, Estonia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Latvia, Romania, Slovakia and Tajikistan. The purpose of the study was to assess the impact that the practice of separate schooling has on the civil enculturation of students belonging to different ethnic/linguistic groups and to evaluate the pre-conditions for gradual ethnic de-segregation of the national school systems.
