Abstract

MARTINS, Susana da Cruz. Portugal, a frontier area in Europe: an interpretation of socio-educational indicators. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2005, n.49, pp.141-161. ISSN 0873-6529.

At the centre of this article is the identification of educational patterns in the European Union and the associated trends, on the basis of a selection of comparative European statistics. With a view to completing a mosaic of socio-educational configurations in the EU, one of its complementary analytical aims is to interpret indicators that, in some form, express the schooling conditions and processes of the various countries’ populations.

Keywords : Education; European comparison; schooling patterns; European Union.
