This study contains papers on the topics of education, democracy and development, discussing the close inter-relationships between these three concepts, and the tensions as well as synergies which exist between them. With the break-up of the Soviet bloc, both existing countries released from their yokes, and new countries carved out of the collapse of the Soviet Union, find themselves in positions in which fundamental questions about inter-relationships between education, democracy and development are of the utmost importance. Their intense interest in the theme has been infectious in Western countries where scholars and politicians have been reminded of their importance in rapidly changing circumstances.
