Abstract

This article is a presentation of bilingual education as it is currently implemented in the ethnically-mixed territories of Slovenia. The present types of bilingual education are the result of the theory of bilingual education as well as of various historical circumstances. They reflect also the Slovenian state’s minority policy. Therefore the article is divided into sections that focus on (a) a historical survey, (b) the constitutional and legal outline of regulations regarding minority issues in Slovenia, and (c) the types of bilingual education in Slovenia.
