By doing so, she defies simplistic explanations that interpret education either as an antidote to or the main cause and perpetuator of exclusivist discourses conducive to bigotry and war. In order to answer this and other questions, Bacevic resorts to an analysis of the implicit and explicit dimensions of policies that can sometimes seem irrational or paradoxical. Consequently, "the crux of this book is concerned with how education policies – intentionally or not – interact with political processes and thus contribute to the imagining of political subjectivities" (p. However, former Yugoslavia and its successor states clearly contradict these assumptions: a country with considerable percentages of highly-educated people descended into war and gave life to divided societies where increasing social inequality seems to be the norm. Education is often invoked as a universal remedy that can prevent conflicts, improve social mobility and enhance post-conflict development. It is with these apparently simple, yet often forgotten considerations that the author approaches education reforms in (post-)Yugoslavia and challenges the well established ˈeducation gospelˈ according to which all kinds of issues can be solved through schooling.

the vocation-oriented education reform in socialist Yugoslavia, the introduction of religious and civic education in post-Milošević Serbia, and the establishment of ˈethnicˈ universities in post-conflict Sandžak, Kosovo, and Macedonia, Bacevic argues that some educational policies reproduced or even exacerbated existing divisions. By examining three ˈcritical juncturesˈ from the (recent) past, i.e. Budapest: Central European University Press, 2014.Ĭontrary to what the title might suggest, this volume offers a compelling analysis of the correlation between educational policies and the wider socio-political context they stem from and partially shape.
