The Democratic Context of School Governance: External and Internal Stakeholders’ Perspectives

The authors discuss the roles of stakeholders in educational systems in Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Taking into consideration important differences between democratic education and education for democracy, as well as the role of education in the formation of political citizens within a democratic society, the authors analyse current tendencies, problems and required changes in the institutional, public and professional approach to education. In the region of Southeastern Europe, the establishment of a legal framework, primarily under the influence of the European Union, which enables the development of a democratic form of school governance, is identified. However, schools and principals have still not recognized the importance and role of stakeholders, who are crucial in the process of decentralization and democratization of both educational systems and society itself.
