Nonaligned Movement: Education
Manage episode 480747015 series 2796830
Student scholarships were a huge part of Yugoslavia’s nonaligned diplomacy and one of the most tangible and visible ways Yugoslav citizens experienced nonalignment. Between 1955 and 1984, Yugoslavia granted nearly 8,000 scholarships to young people from 90 political parties, liberation movements, and countries of the Global South, with foreign students receiving professional, military, and university training and education in the country for various periods. But the program also had an ugly side: discrimination and racism (PLUS).
With Rima Sabina Aouf, Leonora Dugonjic-Rodwin, and Peter Wright, plus Goran Musić, Žiga Smolič, Paul Stubbs, and Damir Vučićević. Featuring music by Gofret (courtesy of Arsivplak) and Yangaman Bob (Dig This Way Records).
Part 5 of 7.
