За необходимостта от национален цитатен указател и възможностите на университетските библиотеки да съдействат за съставянето му (из опита на Библиотеката при ИУ – Варна, 2014 – 2020 г.)

Author(s): Vyara Angelova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

The introduction of new bibliometric indicators for measuring scientific work puts the university and scientific libraries in Bulgaria in the need of creation of databases with citations of professors and scientists in every scientific organization. Each country creates its own citation index. The purpose of the article is to analyse existing bibliographic practises for classifying scientific references and the examine the question for the creation of a National platform to unite them, as well as creating a National Reference Register, in particular one for social studies. It is time for us to decide who will manage the combined citation document resources and how to create a Bulgarian index for scientific citation or a National Citation Index, in general and one for the social studies in particular. Social studies are less represented than the other branches of science, for example, in platforms like Scopus and Web of Science, which are the most influential platforms in the world and publishing and citation in them has more weight in the formation of the minimal national requirements for academic growth. I am using the historical approach and comparative analysis to show the practical experience of countries that have created such Registers and have achieved excellent results. I also offer for discussion a model to build a hierarchical structure for exchange of quoted data. The university libraries need exact criteria which citation to list and how the Bulgarian index for scientific citation in general will be formed, as well as the one for social studies.

Olvasni a szöveget, érteni a közeget

Author(s): Zsófia Ivanics / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 28/2021

A kritikai pedagógia olvasatában a tanítás és tanulás szükségszerűen politikai tett, aminek elsődleges célja, hogy egy igazságosabb és egyenlőbb társadalom létrejöttéhez járuljon hozzá. Ennek a hozzájárulásnak a mikéntje azonban számos kérdést vet fel a pedagógiai gyakorlat szempontjából. A vonatkozó irodalom ritkán beszél módszerekről, vagy technikákról, mivel alaptételének tekinti, hogy a társadalmi viszonyok és a pedagógiai gyakorlatok szoros egysége miatt a módszer soha nem lehet állandó. Emiatt jellemzően nem egyszerű praktikus kapaszkodókat találni sem a módszerek kidolgozásához, sem pedig a pedagógiai gyakorlatok újraértelmezéséhez. Ez az írás elsősorban a gyakorlati tapasztalatok megosztásának és a saját pedagógiai gyakorlatok kritikus vizsgálatának szükségessége mellett érvel, hiszen ez az, ami leginkább elősegítheti, hogy a kritikai pedagógiában központi szerepet betöltő reflexió ne csak az elméleti alapok absztrakt szinten történő megújítását célozza, hanem egyben az érdemi párbeszédet és tanulási folyamatot is lehetővé tegye.

Kritikai pedagógiák – Megközelítések és viták

Author(s): György Mészáros / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 28/2021

This article aims to present and analyse the various scientific approaches and debates of critical pedagogy. The paper offers a theoretical overview and analysis of the different trends; it also integrates the experiences gained in the International Conference on Critical Education. The term “critical pedagogy”; itself has become a term and label taken by very different approaches. Thus, it may be better to talk about critical pedagogies in the plural. In its historical and social context, the article attempts to present the critical pedagogy that has emerged primarily in the United States in the dialogue with postmodernism, as well as its criticisms, especially the Marxist- oriented authors, many of whom are not from the USA. In particular, the Critical Education Conference has become a significant forum for the latter actors over the last decade. From the related experience, a live community of practice seems to emerge. The history of this group and the debates of the different approaches carry lessons for the Hungarian context, too. The final chapter of the study raises questions related to this Hungarian reception of critical pedagogies. The article only undertakes an outline of the various trends without a more profound analysis or a detailed introduction to critical pedagogy(s). Its text presupposes knowledge of the main concepts of previous studies or critical pedagogy in general and a broader view of critical social sciences. Each author’s insights are briefly displayed, and the bibliography allows the interested reader to look into them more deeply.

Author(s): Fitim Gashi,Bedri Peci / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

Technological developments are not easily understood even by people who have advanced education and this leaves much to be expected for other groups. Financial services and banking products are also ‘complicated’ for professionals, not to mention the ordinary client. As a result of the features of financial products and services, especially banking, information is required as an initial form of knowledge of these services and products, and this information is intensified through a constant process such as education. Hence, this article argues how financial education is performed in Southeast Europe and even in the EU. This article also elaborates on the financial education in Kosovo concerning the protection of banking clients’ rights, taking into account the financial education practices from which the Kosovo system can benefit.

A pedagógia elnyomottja

Author(s): Tamás Tóth / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 28/2021

The most common way of articulating educational problems and questions is by speaking the language of social sciences, and using the grammar of political logics. What is the proportion of disadvantaged students? Does this and that project for inclusion appear to be effective? Since when has the school been reproducing inequalities? And so on. What I would like to discuss here is that it is possible to talk about education educationally and along educational logics. While the logic of the political refers to the way the social is born, the logic of the educational signifies the way birth becomes social – namely, our collective and political attitude toward the fact that newcomers are constantly coming into our common and old world. I will present four educational logics characteristic of our epoch, which are discussed in depth by the proponents of an experimentative critical pedagogy. They do understand these logics of the educational in a radically different, twisted way if compared to the mainstream educational discourse, thus laying the groundwork for a new kind of radical left-wing pedagogy. In agreement with them, I want to argue here that pedagogy is not the praxis of the future, but of the present, in which it is more important not to know certain things than to want to know everything, because this is how we can break the chains of the prevailing order here and now: by putting gods and masters into brackets, and ignoring the expectations of the society, as well as the hopes of yesterday which constantly defer revolution.

Deviszont Közösségi Tér. Kritikai pedagógia Kispesten

Author(s): Alexandra Szarka,Kinga Tóth / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 28/2021

The following article is an introduction of Deviszont Community Space, which is a critical pedagogy project aimed at working-class youth attending vocational schools. Our aim is to learn critical thinking, community-based thinking and social action together, from each other – we believe that to reach systemic change in society, you need education; and the aim of education is to foster social change. The article illustrates the Hungarian educational system via quotes from the youths of Deviszont; demonstrates the methodology of critical pedagogy, using examples from our activities to show how to use them in practice; and presents an actual activity plan. Also, we describe in a step-by-step methodological guide what we have needed to do in order to create our community space. In our opinion, there is nothing to wait for: institutions need to be established, places where people who are able to question the existing social system and power structures can grow up. It is time for education to be as important a topic in social discourse, as it is in the shaping of society.

Egy baloldali oktatáspolitika körvonalai

Author(s): György Mészáros,Eszter Neumann / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 28/2021

In the politically divided Hungarian education policy field, a dedicated and coherent leftist education policy alternative has never been formulated since the regime change. Inspired by Hungarian critical education literature and the international literature on leftist education and pedagogy, our paper aims to make a sketch of the main cornerstones of an up-to-date and comprehensive leftist education policy approach. The paper aims to spark a debate: it does not elicit data analysis but rather elicits principles. The main elements of a leftist, critical education policy alternative are the following: an equalizing and comprehensive school system which considers the social embeddedness of the schools and conceives the school as a political space at the macro-level; adaptive, community-based schools at the meso-level; and democratic pedagogical practices at the micro-level. In addition to these main lines, it is proposed to think about the teacher as considered as a social transformative, autonomous intellectual and professional and to envisage a curriculum mindful of class issues.
