摘要：

Content analysis of the curriculum and textbooks for the last four grades of compulsory education used in Bosnia and Herzegovina are presented. The major aim in this research has been to identify how issues related to democracy and human rights are presented.-Do the curriculum and textbooks support the ideas and behaviours recognized as democratic? No, the analysis shows that the curriculum is not emphasizing democratic values and human rights to any considerable extent. The major conclusion in the textbook analysis is that the textbooks present human rights and democracy mostly in negative form, i.e. the student is given a negative model of these topics.
