How are the processes of increasing ethnic and racial diversity
reflected in European schools? How do children and educators
experience and perceive interethnic relations in schools? This book
examines the issues of interethnic coexistence, the management of
ethnic diversity, xenophobic and racial attitudes and, in
particular, the under-researched topic of interethnic violence
among children in the school environment. Drawing together
qualitative and quantitative data across five European countries it
offers an insight into the views, personal experiences and
responses of children from different ethnic backgrounds to
interethnic violence in European schools. International
contributors from England, Slovenia, Cyprus, Italy and Austria come
together to provide a comparative study of experiences of
interethnic conflict and violence in primary and secondary school
classrooms. Each chapter focuses on positive measures that can
combat discrimination, providing examples of good practice as well
as considering the position of the school in promoting citizenship
in an increasingly global world. By examining the experiences and
perspectives of children, educators and experts, the book provides
up-to-date research findings in the field and suggests key
mechanisms for addressing interethnic violence in schools. With
support, schools can play a key role in alleviating interethnic
tensions and combatting ethnocentrism through the implementation of
strong policies, acting as 'protected spaces'. Children's Voices:
Studies of interethnic conflict and violence in European schools is
of international relevance both within Europe, and beyond, and will
appeal to researchers, teachers and policy makers concerned with
race equality in the classroom.
