The book focuses on the threat to free self-development and the effort to ward off a perceived threat of extinction as well as the development of self-preservation forces. The challenges for ethnic and religious minorities in the 19th–21st centuries are explained and unfolded against the historical background that serves as a frame of reference. The royal privileges granted in medieval Hungary were abolished in the mid-19th century. The German-speaking people’s church (Saxones) in Transylvania founded on this had to reorient itself, although a pioneer region of religious freedom had established itself behind the “Ottoman Curtain”.

Barriers to Inclusion offers a comparative and historical account of the rise of special education over the twentieth century in the United States and Germany. This institutional analysis demonstrates how categorical boundaries, professional groups, social movements, and education and social policies shaped the schooling of children and youth with disabilities. It traces the evolution of special education classification, explores growing special education organizations, and examines students' learning opportunities and educational attainments. Highlighting cross-national differences over time, the author also investigates demographic and geographic variability within the federal democracies, especially in segregation and inclusion rates of disabled and disadvantaged children. Germany's elaborate system of segregated special school types contrasts with diverse American special education classrooms mainly within regular schools. Joining historical case studies with empirical indicators, this book reveals persistent barriers to school integration as well as factors that facilitate inclusive education reform in both societies.
Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit den unterschiedlichen Ansätzen zur Bildung von armen und kranken Kindern im 19. Jahrhundert. Den Bemühungen von Georgens und Deinhardt um gemeinsamen Unterricht in einer reformierten Schule werden die Bestrebungen Kielhorns und anderer Sonderpädagogen um Sondererziehung und Fürsorge in einer selbstständigen Sonderschule gegenüber gestellt. Auf der Grundlage zeitgenössischer Quellen wird gezeigt, auf welchen Vorstellungen über die Schule, den Pädagogen und das Kind das bestehende Sonderschulsystem basiert und welchen Interessen es sich als von der allgemeinen Schule abgetrenntes System verdankt. Mit der Arbeit wird das Geschichtsbild der Sonderpädagogik in Frage gestellt und deren Behauptung kritisch hinterfragt, die Sonderschule stelle die bestmögliche Hilfe für Kinder dar, an denen die allgemeine Schule damals wie heute versagt.
