AbstractAfter a long history of living in Europe, latterly in democracies governed with reference to human, and children's, rights, Roma children still have a very low education status and very low school participation rates. The aims of this article are to review the current state of participation of Roma children in education in European countries, with a special focus on Romania, and to discuss some issues about how the right to education is, or is not, respected in the region. Data accumulated in the last decade are revisited and educational policies are analyzed. Particular attention is given to issues of segregation in education, scrutinized through the lens of Romanian and international education practices. The article recommends a number of policy responses, including the value of added cash transfers, as well as action to ensure quality standards in all education settings frequented by Roma children.

Three Stages

The first section of this article provides a brief overview of the field in Canada, and in so doing, demonstrates the broad nature of Comparative Education within the Canadian context. The second section of this article provides an overview of the comparative and international education programmes, specialization areas and courses in Canadian higher education institutions, focusing on three stages in the history of Comparative Education in Canada: the 1950s-1970s (Establishment of Comparative Education); the 1980s -1990s (Fragmentation of Comparative Education); and the 2000s (Broadening Comparative Education). While the focus in this article is on Comparative Education in graduate university programmes, a discussion about Comparative Education in teacher education is also included here. Two tables are presented which summarize changes in the field over the past 50 years and the titles of specific courses related to Comparative Education offered in Canadian universities. A discussion of the current state of Comparative Education in Canadian higher education follows with a few concluding explanatory comments about the current state of the field. Dans la première partie de cet article nous offrons un panorama de ce champ au Canada, et en le faisant, nous démontrons la nature étendue de l'éducation comparée dans le contexte canadien. Dans la deuxième partie, nous donnons un aperçu sur les programmes, les domaines spécialisés, et les cours sur l'éducation comparée et internationale offerts dans les institutions d'études supérieures du Canada. Nous les donnons suivant les trois étapes de l'histoire de l'éducation comparée au Canada: pendant les décennies 1950-1970 (l'établissement de l'éducation comparée); pendant les décennies 1980-1990 (la fragmentation de l'éducation comparée); et dans les années 2000 (l'élargissement de l'éducation comparée). Le but principal de cet article est d'élaborer l'éducation comparée aux programmes d'études supérieures mais nous y parlons aussi de l'éducation comparée dans la formation des enseignants et des enseignantes. Deux tableaux donnent le sommaire des changements dans le domaine pendant les cinquante dernières années et le nom des cours offerts dans les universités canadiennes, ayant un trait spécifique avec l'éducation comparée. Nous présentons aussi l'état actuel de l'éducation comparée enseignée dans les universités canadiennes et terminons par quelques commentaires explicatifs sur l'état actuel de ce domaine d'étude.

Much contemporary just war theory is modeled on the theory of self-defense. The dominant account of rights used by people interested in the right of self-defense is doubly problematic: its internal tensions undermine the plausibility of the views people try to defend, and it is in some ways morally distorting. This book is primarily concerned with developing and then deploying a new account of rights, one that will put the discussion of the right to defend against threats on more solid footing. The introductory chapter covers four themes. First, to explain why the current state of just war theory calls for a new account of rights, the chapter traces a brief history of recent discussions of the right of self-defense. Second, the chapter describes when it is permissible to defend against threats. Third, it explains how this relates to current law and to other philosophical work on the topic. Finally, it sketches an outline of the rest of the book.

ResumoAtualmente, pensar no acesso do aluno com deficiência em sala de aula se faz essencial uma vez que todos têm o direito à educação e de estar presente de forma real na sociedade. Falando especialmente do aluno cego, este requer uma metodologia de ensino condizente com suas limitações e que valorize sua potencialidade. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho é divulgar a experiência da confecção de uma Tabela Periódica adaptada para o Braille e que foi trabalhada em aulas de química junto a dois estudantes cegos, valorizando a história da descoberta dos elementos químicos e de sua organização até a Tabela atual. A partir dos resultados advindos dessa experiência ressaltamos que os alunos com deficiência visual necessitam de recursos didáticos e adaptações curriculares específicos para que possam participar ativamente da construção de sua aprendizagem e, para tanto, as abordagens da História da Ciência se mostram essenciais nesse processo.Palavras-chave: Inclusão; cegos; história da química.AbstractCurrently, thinking about disabled students' access to the classroom is essential since everyone has the right to education and to be present in society. Especially about the blind student, this requires a teaching methodology that is consistent with its limitations and that values its potentiality. Thus, the objective of this work is to divulge the experience of producing a Periodic Table adapted for Braille and that was used in chemistry classes with two blind students, valuing the history of the discovery of the chemical elements and of their organization up to the current Table. Based on the results of this experience, we emphasize that students with visual impairments need didactic resources and specific curricular adaptations so that they can participate actively in the construction of their learning and for this, the approaches of the History of Science are essential in this process.Keywords : Inclusive; blind; history of chemistry.

In recent years there have been significant changes in global drug policy. This article considers these developments. I provide a brief introduction to the history of global drug policy, followed by an overview of the current state of play, both in Australia and abroad. Inspired by a recent injunction by New South Wales Deputy Coroner Harriet Grahame to think differently about drug problems, I then consider whether we are asking the right questions in current debates about the future direction of drug policy, and whether our policy priorities need to change.

The Right

The Republic of Kosovo is a country that observes all the rights and obligations of its subjects with no discrimination in national, racial, linguistic sense. Even though we have these rights in place, in practice the situation is different and not very positive. This is since the non-majority communities Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian in Kosovo face several problems in different areas, especially when it comes to their right on integration to education. This paper will address and evaluate current policies and legislation of Kosovo for inclusion in education as a condition for completion of the education system. This paper will be developed by considering the assessment of the Constitution and relevant legislation referring to the right to education for non-majority communities. Given all this legislation, it will be assessed in harmony with the practical problems that exist regarding access to the education system for non-majority communities. Therefore, this paper aims to bring innovation in this field of research aiming to identify how much the Republic of Kosovo is keeping a pace with the standards for inclusion in the education system, what are the reasons that in current state of play we do not have a satisfactory inclusion in the education by category of children from non-majority communities of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian in pre-university education. Key wordS: Inclusion, Children from Non-Majority Communities of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian, Education Policy, Pre-University Education.
