Sažetak
The fi rst part of the article analyzes the most important stages in
developing intercultural education and looks into the theoretical background of this
specifi cally European educational concept. The author emphasizes the declarative
orientation of European countries towards an intercultural approach (primarily
through the work of the Council of Europe and other European institutions), but
at the same time the approach is not yet well-established in practice, which can
be seen from the fact that there is no common European model of intercultural
education yet. Starting from this observation, the second part of the article
provides an analysis of the way several national curricula in Europe promote
cultural diversitiy in their own contexts. On the basis of the analysis of elements of
intercultural education in the selected curricula, the author emphasizes the diversity
of approaches and classifi es them into three basic types: liberal, multicultural and
intercultural. According to the author, this typology corroborates the thesis that
intercultural policies are still the by-product of the respective general national
educational and cultural policies.
