Educating Communist Cadres: School Re-Entry and Sponsored Educational Mobility in State Socialism
Kreidl, Martin
2003 - anglický This paper analyzes patterns of participation in post-vocational education in socialist Czechoslovakia between 1948- 1989. As the educational system was subject to extensive reforms under socialism, this paper demonstrates their impact upon individual educational trajectories. The primary goal of the text is to show the effects of the communist 'affirmative action' in education. Previous analyses have shown that about one seventh of vocational school graduates continued their education later in life and maintained therefore the possibility of completing their secondary level education (i.e. achieving the so called maturita) and even attending university. This paper shows selection patterns for further education using discrete-time event history analysis.
