The summer school has been created as a three-year project and the first edition was hosted by the University of East Sarajevo (15-21 September 2014). The second year of the Summer School is being organized by the University of Milano-Bicocca in 2015 (Minorities in Democracy), and the third will be by the University of Sarajevo in 2016 (Tolerance and Conflict Prevention and Resolution: From the Neighborhoods to the International Community) . The second edition is focused on the process of trans-nationalization of democracy, from the perspective of the new forms of social and political threats and discrimination towards different minority groups; at the same time as a good practice based on recognition of their specific needs and rights, and on the politics of redistribution related to the political, economic, social and cultural resources will be explored in the context of the European Union, where the concept of tolerance remains fundamental.
