Publisher's Synopsis
In this timely collection of news and feature articles originally published by Transitions and its companion education website, TOL Chalkboard, young journalists in Transitions' traditional coverage areas - Eastern Europe and the Balkans, the Caucasus, Central Asia, and Russia - with the added insights of Chalkboard contributors in other regions, expose the political and sociocultural roadblocks education faces in those regions. This collection is a compelling source for understanding, discussion and even a tool to open closed minds, for readers interested in these regions, political scientists, and journalists.
