Tibor Loran: L'udský kapitál u marginalizovaných Rómov z aspektu edukácie a potrieb znalostného trhu práce
Ľudský kapitál u marginalizovaných Rómov... 95 gogy, I attach importance on labour market and its inclusion to the structure of European and Slovak society. The question is, how to achieve this desired situation, when the labour market refuses to employ marginalized, semi-literate or illiterate Roma people. How to achieve success when after finishing specialized elementary schools for mentally-ill people, many Roma children are not able to sign their names or read a text continuously. Is it possible that the educational sector still does not prepare citizens for labour market, but demises them to the sector that provides social help and services? We openly state thet in this contemporary hobby roundabout, in which marginalized Roma people live, the only problem is not to be well versed, but also to suggest such solutions that responsible instituitons should accept as their own and should try to transform their existing attitude to problems, that indubitably harm both to our state and its citizens. Last of all, one suggestion for everybody. Up to the present, we have spent milliards of Slovak crowns to solve the Roma problem, but neither before nor at the beginning of the 21 st century, in the time of transition to sciential economy, we cannot eliminate analphabetism and semi-literacy of most marginalized Roma people. So far, we tried to solve the problem of analphabetism, lifelong unemployment and the explicit dependence on help of social executives. In contcern of the highest civilization, development of Slovak society and wanted formation of human capital, in this century we should try to increase literacy distinctively among marginalized Roma people. After all, even J. a. Komenský said about socially excluded people that they werw born with one main aim-to be people.
