ID BROJ: 172311820 URBAN REGULARISATION OF BELGRADE, 1867: TRACE vs. ERASURE A B S T R A C T A gradual urban transformation of Belgrade from Oriental into Occidental city in the nineteenth century in a way prefigured its political change of status from an Ottoman Empire border town into a capital of a European nation state (i.e. the Principality of Serbia internationally recognised in 1878). This paper will explore this process, and will focus on the analysis of the plan of regularisation of Belgrade (1867), by Emilijan Josimović, the first Serbian urbanist. Josimović’s plan laid down proposals for a total reconstruction of the Ottoman urban structure, and consequent transformation of Belgrade into European planned city. Radical though it was, the Plan gave urbanistic rationale and formalisation to what already lasted as an informal process of re-urbanisation parallel to the liberation from the crumbling Turkish rule and the related political processes. Ljiljana Blagojević 27 University of Belgrade - Faculty of Architecture S A J _ 2009 _ 1 _ Belgrade’s position at the confluence of the river Sava into the Danube, is marked historically by the condition of constantly shifting borders of divided and conflicting empires. The river Sava marked a geographical and political borderline from the fourth century division of the Roman Empire into the Eastern and Western Empires, until the mid-twentieth century Third Reich’s remapping of Europe.

It is difficult background”1 perform significantly to imagine a government that would not worse at school than their native German support the idea of equal education for counterparts. The term “migration back- all. Germany is no exception. And yet, ground” covers children from families in Germany, children of varied ethnic who are still perceived as “foreigners” and racial backgrounds have vastly because of their racial or ethnic identity, different educational opportunities and even though their families may have experiences. arrived in Germany years ago. This should no longer be a surprise. In 2001, an influential European study shocked Germans with the news that their country, which long had prided itself on its excellent educational system, was at the low end of the compara- tive spectrum. The study, undertaken in 2000 by the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) (an arm of the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD)), showed that German children did poorly in reading, math, and science, in comparison to students from 56 other countries. The PISA study described the deep flaws in the German education system. In particular, it explained that at-risk students—including those of migration, or migrant, backgrounds—performed among the worst in the world. They were more often tracked into the lowest level Hauptschule; they were excluded from the best classrooms; and they had far fewer opportunities to attend Gymnasium, which meant they were not permitted to take the state Abitur examination and attend university.

  • Classifying Educational Programmes
    Classifying Educational Programmes Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries 1999 Edition ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT Foreword As the structure of educational systems varies widely between countries, a framework to collect and report data on educational programmes with a similar level of educational content is a clear prerequisite for the production of internationally comparable education statistics and indicators. In 1997, a revised International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED-97) was adopted by the UNESCO General Conference. This multi-dimensional framework has the potential to greatly improve the comparability of education statistics – as data collected under this framework will allow for the comparison of educational programmes with similar levels of educational content – and to better reflect complex educational pathways in the OECD indicators. The purpose of Classifying Educational Programmes: Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries is to give clear guidance to OECD countries on how to implement the ISCED-97 framework in international data collections. First, this manual summarises the rationale for the revised ISCED framework, as well as the defining characteristics of the ISCED-97 levels and cross-classification categories for OECD countries, emphasising the criteria that define the boundaries between educational levels. The methodology for applying ISCED-97 in the national context that is described in this manual has been developed and agreed upon by the OECD/INES Technical Group, a working group on education statistics and indicators representing 29 OECD countries. The OECD Secretariat has also worked closely with both EUROSTAT and UNESCO to ensure that ISCED-97 will be implemented in a uniform manner across all countries.

Summary BATIC F. & MAYRHOFER H. 1996. Bioindication of air pollution by epiphytic lichens in forest decline studies in Slovenia. - Phyton (Horn, Austria) 36 (3): (85) - (90). Initial studies were based on mapping of cover and frequency of crustose, foliose and fructicose epiphytic lichens on trees and these were also assessed for decline symptoms. Since 1985 the epiphytic lichen vegetation has been assessed by such methods and the results, expressed as a lichen map of Slovenia were used as an air quality indicator for plots of forest die-back inventory. In collaboration with lichenologists from Graz University, Austria, all epiphytic lichen species were mapped in order to obtain better measures of air quality in the area studied. Very polluted and clean, well preserved forest were investigated. From the material collected and determined, a lichen herbarium has been established in the Slovenian Forestry Institute. Possibilities for further research and the use of epiphytic lichens as air quality indicators are discussed.

Karlson+ Rasmus Landersø† February 17, 2021 Abstract We study intergenerational educational mobility in Denmark over the 20th century during which the comprehensive Danish welfare state was rolled out. While mobility initially was low, schooling reforms benefiting children from disadvantaged backgrounds led to dramatic increases in mobility for cohorts born between 1940 and 1960. However, the college expansion affecting cohorts born from 1970 onward has mainly benefited children from affluent back- grounds, resulting in rapidly declining mobility. Comparisons to educational mobility trends in the U.S. reveal that the two countries converge in mobility levels for the most recent cohorts despite the dramatically different welfare policies in place. JEL: H0, I0, J0 Keywords: educational mobility, inequality, schooling reforms, skills ∗ We are indebted to generous feedback from many, especially Jesper Birkelund, Richard Breen, Steven Durlauf, Gøsta Esping-Andersen, James J.

Full-time education is compulsory between the ages of 6 and 15 or 16 (depending on the region), and part-time education is compulsory until the age of 18 for those who do not attend a full-time school. Germany is a federal republic and the ministers and senators of the federal states (the Länder) are responsible for education, higher education and research as well as cultural affairs. School policy is in the responsibility of the federal states.5 School-systems and curricula differ between the federal states dependent in part on the political parties. Responsibility for education lies primarily with the Länder.6 A particular issue in German mathematics education is referred to as the PISA crisis.
