Author(s):

In 1997, Poland has ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the project of which has been submitted in 1978 (UNICEF). Almost two hundred countries around the world have signed up the Convention, thereby committing themselves to respect the rights of the child in various dimensions of social life. The right to education is one of the fundamental rights of the child. It also concerns foreign children, who, as a result of migration, have settled down in Poland. The number of immigrants is not as high as in the countries that have built their empires on colonialism. Polish literature raising the issue of education and the rights of foreign children to it is not comprehensive and is based on the publications on the rights of children and cross-cultural education. The main aim of the dissertation is to approximate the literature of the subject with attention to their practical use.

The subject matter of this article was the right to education with a particular regard to the rights of the child being a pupil and his/her right to personal treatment in the teaching and the whole educational process, the right to the open and motivated assessment of the progress in learning, the right to impact the school life via local government activities, as well as the right to the freedom of conscience and religion, and the right to recognise and preserve the national identity in the teaching process. The issue of pupil’s responsibilities, and in particular compulsory schooling and compulsory education, have also been raised. The article defi ned the right to education and placed it among other acts of international law – the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, the Declaration of the Rights of the Child, as well as the Convention on the Rights of the Child, known as the World Constitution of the Rights of the Child. In addition to the nature of the right to education, the subject matter of the consideration was also the principles and guarantees of its implementation, contained in the Basic Law. Their analysis led to the conclusion about the limited nature of the right of parents to bring up the child according to their own convictions, the implementation of which should be compatible with the welfare of the child and the constitutionally guaranteed right to receive education. An analysis of the regulations applicable in the prescribed scope statutory, and in particular in terms of universal and equal access to education have also been discussed. The refl ections presented in the article have been enriched with case law examples and judgments delivered by the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, the Supreme Court, and the Common Courts. The analysis of the existing legal references, the doctrine, and the case law has allowed to reach a conclusion on the fundamental nature of the right to education, the implementation of which conditions the development of an individual and the full use of its rights.

As a member of the United Nations, Zambia is committed to the observance of human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948. This is evidenced, among others, by the fact that Zambia is a signatory to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. Zambia has a permanent Human Rights Commission that includes a subcommittee on child rights whose focus is on child abuse and education. Zambia also has a National Child Policy and National Youth Policy whose main objectives are to holistically address problems affecting children and youth. This paper focuses on the progress and challenges currently facing Zambia and the role of open and distance learning in addressing those challenges.

The Act on the Protection of the Right to a Trial within a Reasonable Time, which took effect in 2016, has created the conditions in our legal system for the protection of the right to a trial within a reasonable time, as one of the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia and related international documents. Although the legislator does not explicitly provide for the application of this Act in the context of bankruptcy proceedings, it has been used in judicial practice as a mean for the bankruptcy creditors to obtain just satisfaction in cases involving lengthy bankruptcy proceedings and a violation of the right to a fair trial within a reasonable time. The subject matter of analysis in this paper is the right to a trial within a reasonable time in bankruptcy cases. For that purpose, the authors examine the case law of the Commercial Court in Niš in the period from the beginning of 2016 to the end of 2019, particularly focusing on the bankruptcy cases in which complaints (objections) were filed for the protection of the right to a fair trial within a reasonable time. The aim of the research is to examine whether the objection, as an initial act, is a suitable instrument for increasing the efficiency of the bankruptcy proceeding, or whether it only serves to satisfy the interests of creditors. The authors have also examined whether this remedy affects the overall costs and duration of the bankruptcy proceeding. The main finding is that there is an increasing number of objections in the Commercial Court in Niš, which still does not affect the length and costs of bankruptcy. This trend is not only the result of inactivity of the court and the complexity of certain cases but also of numerous external factors, the most prominent of which is the work of some state bodies.

The article presents the realization of the right to education, as set out in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, in the Republic of Slovenia. At the outset, attention is drawn to the special status of the right to education, which is not only the right of children, but also adults. Moreover, the right to education is closely linked to the realization of all other rights. This article presents a general overview of the implementation of rights according to Articles 28 and 29 of the Convention. Then it outlines the problems with the implementation of the Convention in selected areas. The main points are related to the education of Roma children, the quality of knowledge, private education. The complexity of the problem of the realization of the rights of Romani children to education has been repeatedly pointed out in international RS reports on the implementation of the Convention. It is not so obvious, however, that the quality of the knowledge received by students in schools is also an aspect that should be considered from the perspective of the Convention. This article analyses the regulation of private schools: this is the area of education in Slovenia where the biggest normative and factual change has occurred in the period after the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The analysis shows that the arrangement is such that it satisfies the requirements set forth in the Convention.

Cross cultural education and cross-cultural learning are two mutually integrated and relatively independent logical systems. There are differences in purpose, motivation, path and result, and they are contradictory to each other at some times. The differences between music education and music learning in the system structure begin with motivation, and appropriateness is an important principle to effectively reconcile educational motivation and learning motivation. In the international cooperation projects among music colleges and universities in the 21st century, the appropriateness of cross-cultural education motivation is usually measured by the identity of teaching objects, the value standard of teaching content and the practical significance of teaching purpose. Based on the perspective of cross-cultural music learning, this paper examines the appropriateness of educational motivation in international cooperation projects of music colleges and universities.
