Balkan.Perspectives No. 8

The 8th issue of Balkan.Perspectives examines why dealing with the past should be taken into account when talking about education. We are looking at how nationalism is being spread through the schools and universities but want to also present best practice examples of how formal and non-formal education institutions are promoting inclusive ways of remembrance.
