Entrepreneurial education: opportunities for change and improvement in the education system.
Vol. 2 No. 30 (2021)The Lisbon Strategy (2000) was the beginning for the promotion of entrepreneurial culture in Europe, where it was discussed educational systems would be the key for the development of enterprising spirit in future generations. With respect to this, education legislation has been gradually incorporating enterprising education into different stages and levels of the education system. The constant changes and transformations in the current society have an even more relevant impact, if possible, in the students' enterprising spirit training. More than twenty years after the firsts postulations about enterprising education, a wide number of proposals, models, programs, and educational actions related to the development of the entrepreneurial skills have configurated a corpus about the entrepreneurial skills from several perspectives: social, personal, cultural and economical. Therefore, the current special issue of Cuestiones Pedagógicas aims to unify studies that analyse, contrast and describe what educational implications does the entrepreneurial skill has, how is it being implemented in the education system and where are both the theory and practice of enterprising education oriented.

Interculturality, cultural inclusion and equity in Ibero-America
Vol. 1 No. 30 (2021)The inequalities that continue to characterise the education systems of Ibero-American nation-states, and which are often expressed in gaps in access, chasms in quality and a lack of cultural and linguistic relevance, require alternative responses to the age-old tradition of an education that assimilates, homogenises and decontextualises the realities of learners' experiences. Intercultural education and inclusive education are attempts to transform these inequalities by rethinking educational institutions inductively, from below, and not by imposition from state or national authorities. This monographic issue of Cuestiones Pedagógicas proposes to bring together research papers that analyse, compare and visualise the path to follow towards the interculturalisation of educational centres based on institutional initiatives that involve the different educational actors in the promotion of equity and inclusion, redefining the relations between the school and the community environment.

Dr. Miquel Martínez Martín. University of Barcelona, Spain.
Fifty years have passed since the approval of the General Education Law in 1970. Over this half century different Acts have been approved that have regulated education in Spain without achieving the necessary unanimity in order to state our education system is protected by ideological vicisitudes that obviously characterise the whole dynamic and democratic system. It is known acts do not change education, but they do generate some conditions or others that encourage or hampers certain proposals, approaches and practices. This monographic issue of Cuestiones Pedagógicas aims to gather contributions about how education has progressed during these five decades.

Holocaust Memory as an education strategy for education professionals
Vol. 1 No. 29 (2020)Guest Editor:
Dr. Manuel Reyes Mate Rupérez. Center for Human and Social Sciences. Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). Madrid, Spain.
In the year that the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz Death Camp is commemorated -paradigm of what Nazi barbarism meant in the history of mankind- and after 20 years from the Declaration of Stockholm -a document in which European countries accept the inclussion of contents about the Holocaust in the different education curricula as a precept- in this number, the use of Holocaust teaching is proposed beyond the historical fact. This is as a convenient resource for teaching values, tolerance and respect, that contribute to the development of a democratic society. Holocaust education is an European policy to which Spain is linked since 2007 and it depends on the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport within the publication of the Ley Orgánica de Mejora Educativa (LOMCE) 8/2013, de 9 de diciembre, which includes the jewish holocaust as a subject. This circumstance forces teachers to have some knowledge about the topic.

Issue Management: No. 26 (2017): Cooperation and community development programs
No. 26 (2017)Guest Editor:
Dr. Antonio Matas Terrón, Universidad de Málaga, España.
Cooperation and development are, themselves, a pairing of indivisible concepts, and worth here the argumentative contradiction of pairing and indivisible. Rarely is one without the other, and ‘rarely’ is included just in case there was an unnoticed case in History. Besides, this number has chosen a good publication moment. For many decades the effects of globalisation have been perceived and suffered from all areas related to the human being, and it is important to highlight society needs to learn how to cope in a globalised world. We are attending to ideological, cultural and social closure phenomena that are a defensive response to the uncertainty globalisation generates. The consequences that can be observed at social, economical, political and cultural levels are catastrophic for the citizens. In this context, Education, as the only efficient mean between fear and uncertainty must asume its role. It must do it founded on serious and powerful research, real and critical commitment based on data and not on the impulsiveness of its agents. In this sense, cooperation should be a rising value facing competitiveness.
