Ethnicity-centered discourse
The ISSH-S research team is pleased to announce the final Policy Analysis document on “Abandoning ethnicity-centered discourse in the government political rhetoric and in institutional policy making”
The analysis was conducted by the Institute of Social Sciences and Humanities – Skopje and targeted the ethnic model of governing and ethnic modeling of social, educational, economic and cultural policies. It aims to provide insight into the processes that need to be undertaken in order to develop socio-economic policies and political ideas of solidarity beyond ethnicity.
The analysis consisted of desk analysis of policy decisions in the last 2 years of government institutions, analysis of crucial laws, media analysis on public political discourse, and analysis of political rhetoric and communication of political leaders in the country.
The policy analysis resulting from the process of research and analysis outlines the arguments and political rationale for abandoning ethnic discourse in the government political rhetoric and the institutional policy functioning.
The Institute of social sciences and humanities – Skopje intends to organize a public forum of representatives of CSO’s and international donor organizations in order to debate and adopt an strategic plan of action related to the policy recommendations proposed in the policy analysis document.
