Современная агрессия и мировые конфликты вызвали волну патриотизма, которая всколыхнула не одну страну. Сейчас в экспертной среде ряда европейских стран и мировых центрах активно обсуждаются новые подходы по вопросу патриотического воспитания в условиях роста уровня террористической угрозы и неконтролируемой миграционной волны в мире. Положительную роль в патриотическом и военно-патриотическом воспитании подростков во многих странах мира сыграла и продолжает играть общественная система воспитания Скаутское движение (скаутинг, англ. Scouting) – международное неполитическое молодежное движение, которое призвано поддерживать физическое, умственное и духовное развитие молодежи, повышать ее роль в обществе. Началом движения считается 1907 г., а основателем генерал-лейтенант британской армии Р. Баден-Пауэлл (англ. Robert Baden-Powell). В статье рассмотрены роль и место гражданско-патриотического воспитания в системе обеспечения национальной безопасности. Исследованы особенности патриотического и военно-патриотического воспитания в ведущих странах мира. Проанализирована эффективность организации и ведения гражданско-патриотического воспитания, разработаны предложения по повышению эффективности деятельности в этой сфере. Modern aggression and world conflicts have caused a wave of patriotism that has stirred up more than one country. Currently, the expert community of a number of European countries and world centers is actively discussing new approaches to the issue of patriotic education in the context of the growing level of the terrorist threat and the uncontrolled migration wave in the world. A positive role in the patriotic and military-patriotic education of adolescents in many countries of the world has been played and continues to be played by the public education system of the Scout Movement (Scouting, English Scouting) – an international non-political youth movement that is designed to support the physical, mental and spiritual development of young people, to increase their role in society. The beginning of the movement is considered to be 1907, and the founder is Lieutenant General of the British Army R. Baden-Powell (Eng. Robert Baden-Powell). The article considers the role and place of civil-patriotic education in the system of ensuring national security. The features of patriotic and military-patriotic education in the leading countries of the world are studied. The effectiveness of the organization and conduct of civil and patriotic education is analyzed, and proposals for improving the effectiveness of activities in this area are developed.

The focus of this chapter is the management and governance of education at provincial level—specifically on efforts to introduce performance management into education by the Western Cape Education Department (WCED), and their impact. Post-1994 the WCED inherited a bureaucracy that was well placed to manage the province’s large public education system. Subsequently, irrespective of which political party has been in power, the WCED consistently has sought to implement performance management. This chapter explores to what extent determined, top-down efforts, led by the public sector, can improve dismal educational performance. It concludes that the WCED is a relatively well-run public bureaucracy. However, efforts to strengthen the operation of the WCED’s bureaucracy have not translated into systematic improvements in schools in poorer areas. One possible implication is that efforts to strengthen hierarchy might usefully be complemented with additional effort to support more horizontal, peer-to-peer governance at the school level.

All these changes have caused great changes in the public consciousness and spiritual life of society. With the acquisition of Kazakhstan's status as a sovereign state, the education of patriotism among the younger generation requires a special approach and interpretation, in consequence of the multinational nature of this state. It is necessary to form the right attitude to their Homeland and this should engage society, as patriotism is not inherent in the genes, it is not hereditary, and social quality. Love for the Motherland is the deepest of human feelings, which are the spiritual Foundation of social and state development.

This chapter chronicles the new reality faced by urban teacher unions after the emergence of austerity regimes in many American cities. It charts teacher strikes in St. Louis (1979) and Philadelphia (1980 and 1981). In each case, teacher unions faced staunch taxpayer resistance to salary increases, and in the case of Philadelphia, a mayor who dealt with massive budget deficits by reneging on a collectively-bargained contract. As importantly, in Philadelphia, opponents of the “unproductive” urban poor and unionized teachers began to imagine market reforms of the public education system. The chapter concludes by documenting the emergence of vouchers in order to understand the mounting challenge of neoliberalism to American public education.
