handle is hein.journals/rvusoclge2009 and id is 69 raw text is: Abandonul colar in judetul Bihor. 0 abordare calitativA Conf univ.dr. $erban OLAH, Universitatea Oradea serbanolah2002@ayahoo.com Abstract: The research investigates the causes and the results of the school dropout in Bihor County. The first part of the paper analyses the international specialty literature in this field and also works of Romanian authors. The second part of the study consists of the analysis of the data obtained through qualitative techniques, i.e. the use of the half- structured interview and of the focus group interview. The qualitative research shows that the most affected by the school dropout is the Rroma population, the most frequent causes of this phenomenon being : the poverty, the low educational level of the parents, their indifference towards school, the tradition and the pupil's group of friends (his/her company). The school dropout leads to youth delinquency and to a low level of integration on the job market. The research is an exploratory one and it is the first stage of a larger project of study on school dropout and its results in the North- Western part ofRomania. Key words: schoold dropout, Rroma, research Despre problema abandonului Scolar, ca gi despre multe alte probleme sociale precum gomajul, prostitulia sau sdrdcia s-a vorbit foarte pulin in Rominia regimului Ceaugescu. Acestea erau considerate mai degrabd probleme apartindnd tdrilor capitaliste sau tdrilor lumii a Ill-a. Se presupunea cd sistemul socialist le poate rezolva cu succes Cu toate acestea atit womajul, prostitulia, cdt gi abandonul Scolar au existat in perioada Ceaugescu, chiar daca nu la nivelul de dupd 1989. Totodatd sdrdcia a fost un element prezent in vechiul regim, dar care nu avea loc in discursurile oficiale. Dupd 1989 toate aceste probleme sociale au captat atenlia atit a specialistilor in stiinte sociale, jumalistilor cdt gi a politicienilor. S-a inteles faptul ci problemele menlionate sunt inerente oncirei societdli i ca- nu se pot elimina, ci doar se pot reduce ca nivel de manifestare. Cercetarea noastri urmireste cauzele gi consecintele abandonului Scolar punind un accent deosebit pe situatia rromilor. Comparativ cu alte grupuri etnice din Rominia rromii sunt cei mai afectali de saracle, omaj i abandon Scolar. Comparativ cu media nalionald rromii au un risc triplu de a deveni saraci. Marea vulnerabilitate a grupului rromilor e cauzatd de un complex de factori ca nivelul scdzut de pregdtire colard gi vocalionald, pozilia precard pe piala muncii, numdrul mare de copii din familiile de rromi, discriminarea lor de citre grupul majontar i implicarea in economia informald. Eu consider cd se poate vorbi in cazul rromilor de un cerc vicios. Fund sdraci in marea lor majoritate nu dispun de resurse pentru a-gi finaliza pregdtirea Scolard gi profesionald. Multi abandoneazd coala dupd 4,5 sau 6 clase gi in consecinth au probleme in a-gi gasi un loc de munch. Neavind multi dintre ei locuri de munch se implic in economia informald, emigreazd in tdrile occidentale sau comit infracliuni. Problema rromilor 69
