I am 24 years old. Maybe we have a vastly different notion of recent, but merkels decision was 2015, which is nearly 4 years ago. Maybe it's really a matter of definition or "recent" and "fashion", but I am not sure whether tolerance & diversity will still be a major topic in 2025. I hope not, 2025 is in 6 years and would like to see that we have moved on and got to a mutual agreement in our society. 2025 would be 10 years after the migrant crisis! I don't think we absolutly need to drag every topic out for whole generations to be not counted as "fashion" or "temporary". > From my personal experience, education is a big topic, but mostly top-down. It's in politics, it's in the media, it's in literature, but it's not like average parents discuss the education system a lot. They're involved with details, but I've never witnessed a discussion at dinner or a party about the education system (while it'll quickly go to politics, economics etc, and most of my friends have children of school age). I don't know if you're german? This is not what I experienced, like i said, i experienced two changes of the school system during my education, which lead to a lot of discussion. Also, while i am now out of school and in university for some time, the school system is still a topic of discussion in my extended family due to parents having to choose in which school their kids they should go. We have some private schools in germany that follows a different philosophy (and I really mean philosophy, there's a whole educational theory behind them), the "Montessori education". A part of my family is very convinced that the montessori philosophy is superior to the more rigid and less free philosophy in the public school system. This is not my point of view (I went to a public school), which I am willing to defend. This leads to real discussions over dinner or in the evening.
