DIALOGS ON DIVERSITY AND GLOBAL EDUCATION GEBUNDEN

Intercultural and ethical issues are part of our daily lives. They share characteristics that
make them particularly sensitive and sometimes volatile. The challenges that increasing
diversity brings into education and schools in general are many as can be seen in this volume 
for instance  in the Scandinavian countries  Estonia  United States  Canada  Japan and China.
There are conflicting interpretations of multiculturalism and interculturalism. Culture plays a
key role in different interpretations: North America is more tuned into hybrid aspects of
students' identities  while in many European countries ethnicity still dominates the
discussion. Good teachers make a difference. They have an understanding of the socio-political
context of education as well as intercultural competence. The essays in this book portray
multicultural  intercultural  and global as well as theoretical and practical approaches to
diversity and education.
