Education Policies and Political Education in BiH

Summary/Abstract: Education was a powerful means of preserving the social order in socialism under the wings of which dwelled the Yugoslav fraternity and unity that further legitimised political activity. The change of the old educational title in the BiH case began in the war environment, so the schools were divided according to the military positions and battlefield lines, and politics recruited the curriculum to be used. Although a significant departure from the socialist paradigm has been made in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as a step towards the modernisation of the education system through the strengthening of national cultures and identities, the ideological idiosyncrasy has widened the gap. The goal of education in conflict disadvantaged societies should not be the production of students who are able to pass exams and meet certain prescribed standards, but reducing the tension among social groups by creating an environment in which stereotypes will be revealed and offered alternatives. For a progressive shift toward belief in universal democratic principles need enormous engagement in political education and education.
