Egy végtelen történet: közoktatási decentralizáció Délkelet-Európában
Endless Story

Summary/Abstract: Changes in South-East European educational control are closely linked to the collapse of Yugoslavia and the birth of new nation states. The previously autonomous republics of the federal Yugoslav state introduced centralized systems of educational governance – but such newly arrived at centralized systems suffer from having a great lack of trust from society and also low efficiency. The latest efforts to deal with this (i.e. decentralization) are hardly likely to be coherent as educational administration and funding are separate. Newly acquired practices like decentralizing elements of content regulation (curriculum) are nonetheless being regularly integrated into the traditionally centralized system of educational overseeing. Yet pro-decentralization groups of experts and intellectuals enjoy strong international support. The process and future of educational decentralization will eventually be decided by external factors, however (for example the future way local governments are funded).
