Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2009, Vol 153, Issue 3

Abstract

The authors of this article aimed at emphasising the most significant issues related to the broad concept of multicultural education. The inspiration came from the fact that the cur-rent federation of European countries – the European Union – has made multilateral pro-gress over the last ten years. The ensuing implications concern the diversity of cultures within the societies of the Member States.The article outlines the role that needs to be fulfilled by teachers of adults called andragogue teachers. As such they assume responsibility for unequivocal and uniform understanding of the coexistence of all people within the European Union despite social, cultural, economic, and political differences.The role of andragogue teachers is becoming the cornerstone of European education. Their professionalism resulting from desirable competence and appropriate personality determines the consolidation of multicultural awareness among societies. Consequently, it leads to peaceful coexistence of diverse European cultures taking account of the rules of humanism, democracy, solidarity, and mutual tolerance. Hence andragogics should constitute the ultimate educational objective for EUROPEAN EDUCATION.In the opinion of the authors, the article may encourage further investigation and development of andragology concept.
