Folk High Schools as Institutions of Contemporary Regionalism: Chances and Threats to Traditional Culture in the Globalizing World
Journal Title: Studies in Global Ethics and Global Education - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
In the globalising reality we observe the increase of various antagonistic phenomena with completely contradictory tendencies, as integration and disintegration processes. Disputes and disagreements go on constantly and hence arise a lot of anxiety and frustration in this important matter. In order to weaken the intensity of these feelings, a new dimension of European and world culture has to be created in which inhabitants will become aware and active co-originators of civilisation, development and progress. Educational institutions for rural youth established at the end of the 19th century in Denmark called Folk high schools are presented in this article as an example of shaping European and world cultural identity.
