Tick-borne diseases in Turkey
This study is describing the projects of Bildung which are possible to identify with the students and the teachers at two folk high schools and the meeting between those projects in the classrooms. Another purpose is to describe and analyze processes, which arise when teachers, students and folk high school as an institution come together. As a background and part of the study, connected to the central concept of the thesis - power and Bildung - is an account of the projects of Bildung which have been developed within the folk high school in a historical perspective. It is the generally oriented course and the students that are in focus. The study is part of an ethnographic research tradition and the empirical part of the study consists of a combination of qualitative interviews with the teachers and the students and participant observation. The projects of Bildung, which I have found represented by the students are “selfeducation” with the subgroups "self-development" and "self-rehabilitation" and "the project of qualification". Most of the teachers try to establish an attitude that has a self-educational direction but gradually the teachers are forced to let the qualification project get a more prominent part in the teaching. The projects of Bildung are changing and are in contrast to each other, sometimes in harmony and sometimes out of balance. I found that the study setting could be characterized by manifoldness and dynamics. A pluralism resulting in challenges and different processes
