“…Recent research on the approaches of new education programming in Rwanda has noted that their programs are often resistant to recognizing differences in identity (King & Samii, 2020) and serves as a strategic tool to continue to write the governments narrative (King, 2017). Others have noted that secondary curriculums are often contradictory to students own experiences and faces limits in implementation (Basabose & Habyarimana, 2019).…”

This study evaluates news portrayals of resilience in the newly renewed Education for Sustainable Peace in Rwanda initiative. There remains a gap in understanding about how Rwanda's education approaches are portrayed and disseminated to the public by news media. This research uses an inductive coding analysis and layers Entman's framing theory to evaluate new media portrayals of resiliency in the reporting of domestic and international media outlets. This research demonstrates that there has been little media attention paid to Rwanda's education system outside of Rwanda, despite the newly revised programming. This research also finds that in media sources which do discuss Rwanda's education system, portrayals of approaches to resilience that have the potential for inclusivity are far more common than approaches which are top-down and exclusive. These findings serve to contribute to literature in both the context of Rwanda's place in global governance and the broader discussions of educational resiliency.

“…65 In a similar way, the starting point of the attack can be presented as the position of the military forces (before the attack) or as the origin of the military forces (where they were initially stationed). The latter approach is used, for instance, in a Croatian and BosnianCroatian textbook 66 in Symbolic Nation-building through Images in Post-Yugoslav History Textbooks Arrows in maps may also suggest entities being "drawn together" or "falling apart," thus emphasizing a particular framing 67 for historical interpretation of the complex stories of creation or disintegration of com posite states (or any state for that matter). For instance, Serbian textbooks present how the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes was created in a way that territories previously part of the Austro Hungarian Empire (organized as a State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbia) and the Kingdom of Montenegro came to join (arrows pointing toward) the Kingdom of Serbia in November and December 1918 (see Figure 3 for example).…”

Symbolic Nation-building through Images in Post-Yugoslav History Textbooks

The use of history textbooks in order to instill particular images of the nation and national identity has been widely recognized, with a proliferation of studies focused on the problematic content in textbooks. Yet, history textbooks rely on a range of other media like maps, graphs, illustrated timelines, and photographs, which also play an important role in visually signposting the nation. While some of these images serve primarily as a form of representation aligned with the text itself, other aspects of visual content distinctly and autonomously construct national identity. In this piece, relying on qualitative visual analysis, we point to the function played by images in symbolically constructing the nation in contemporary primary school textbooks in five post-Yugoslav republics, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia.

“…Desde esta perspectiva, hay estudios que se centran en analizar la versión o versiones del conflicto que comienzan a circular a lo largo del currículo prescrito, ya sea a través de la normatividad oficial sobre el problema -planes de estudio- (Arias y Herrera, 2018;McLean, 2011;Savard, 2016), los contenidos de los textos escolares (Padilla y Bermúdez, 2016;King, 2017) o la conjunción de ambos (Oglesby, 2007;Bellino, 2014;Paulson, 2010). A partir de este tipo de análisis, un primer indicador que surge es la ausencia del conflicto armado como tema de enseñanza de la historia.…”

A partir de una investigación de revisión de literatura, el presente artículo analiza cómo algunas sociedades que han atravesado recientemente por conflictos armados internos, lidian escolarmente con el desafío que supone enseñar a las nuevas generaciones la historia de ese pasado difícil y traumático. Desde esta perspectiva, se abordan hallazgos investigativos producidos durante el periodo 2004-2019, en torno a experiencias de enseñanza de países ubicados en África, América, Oriente Medio y Europa. Por medio de este ejercicio se identifican una serie de dificultades, retos y posibilidades en los sistemas escolares de estos países, alrededor del desarrollo de discursos y prácticas que permitan afianzar desde la enseñanza de la historia procesos de reconciliación críticos. En este sentido, se plantea que la educación histórica en contextos de posconflicto puede aportar elementos formativos de carácter cognitivo, ético y político, básicos en la proyección de un presente y futuro pacíficos.
