EDUCATION POLICY AND POWER-SHARING IN POST-CONF...

This book explores the nexus between education and politics in Lebanon  Northern Ireland  and
Macedonia  drawing from an extensive body of original evidence and literature on power-sharing
and post-conflict education in these post-conflict societies  as well as the repercussions that
emerged from the end of civil war. This book demonstrates that education policy affects the
resilience of political settlements by helping reproduce and reinforce the mutually exclusive
religious  ethnic  and national communities that participated in conflict and now share
political power. Using curricula for subjects-such as history  citizenship education  and
languages-and structures like the existence of state-funded separate or common schools  Fontana
shows that power-sharing constrains the scope for specific education reforms and offers some
suggestions for effective ones to aid political stability and reconciliation after civil wars.
