Intercultural Education: Concepts, Practice, Problems. Hristo Kyuchukov Tadeusz Lewowicki & Ewa Ogrodzka-Mazur (eds.). The book Intercultural Education: Concepts, Practice, Problems, edited by Hristo Kyuchukov, Tadeusz Lewowicki and Ewa Ogrodzka-Mazur, is the first volume in the new series Interculturalism and Intercultural Education published by LINCOM. The chief editor of this series is Prof. Dr. Hristo Kyuchukov. The book presents contributions from the School of Thought on Interculturalism developed by Prof. T. Lewowicki, one of the leading experts in Poland on the issues of intercultural education. The articles, written by Polish scholars and experts are grouped around four major topics: the theoretical context of intercultural Pedagogy and Education; issues of identity; practical experiences and suggestions; intercultural education versus European and global problems. The papers discuss various cultural, social, religious, ethnic and linguistic aspects of interculturalism in Polish society and in Europe based on concrete experience and empirical research in Poland, and constitute a valuable, fresh and fascinating contribution to the broader European and more global discussion on interculturalism and its place in the classroom and society in the 21st century. The volume will be of strong interest to students, researchers and others interested in the issues of interculturalism and intercultural education as seen from a distinctive, too little known perspective.
