Human Rights Issues in Textbooks: The Turkish Case

Textbooks used in elementary and secondary education not only serve as fundamental educational instruments for students and instructors, but also implement methods of thinking, research and expression by their content, style, and format. It is vitally important that they should be designed to protect "the right to education" by conveying accurate, up-to-date, objective information, to endorse respect for human life and dignity, and to uphold other basic human rights such as "the right to freedom of opinion and expression" found in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
