ABSTRACT
Development of Intercultural Education in certain parts of the world is dependent on some general factors (globalization, interest in other cultures, evolution of educational doctrines, greater respect for human rights), as well as local particulars. Dominant theoretical perspectives, areas of interest and problems, as well as direction of the discipline’s development, are connected both to past and present situations of the states and nations. Sociopolitical conditions also play a signifi cant part.
