dc.description.abstract | Modern societies have become much more complex in recent decades, also in terms of ethnic
identities and differences. The question arose whether education systems were capable
of addressing the needs of ethnic and other minorities in countries across the globe. After
examining a cross-section of education systems (in Australia, Canada, China, Israel, Malaysia,
Rwanda, Russia and South Africa) with the aid of a set of specially developed criteria, it was
concluded that these systems seemed to comply with the criteria in various ways, albeit in
different measures and in several configurations. It is recommended that policy makers apply
such criteria for enhancing the capability of an education system to address the needs of ethnic
minorities and to meet the demands of increased social complexity | en_US |
