Well, you see, that’s the whole problem, having Eastern European Studies courses available at universities. What a “shoo-in” for any eastern European.
It would be like me studying “English Cooked Breakfasts” at some University in Peru. “Central and Eastern European Studies” is not a legitimate University course, and exactly the type of thing we need to stop subsidising through our taxes.
Yeah, I see the problem very clearly. You have absolutely no idea about Eastern Europe and you don’t want to learn anything about it. You have milion or so Eastern European migrants living in your country and you don’t want to learn anything about their culture. You have 10 big countries in EU, your potential trade partners, and you don’t want to know anything about them. You have centuries of common history influceincing situation in UK as well as everywhere else in Europe and you are not interested to learn more about it.
You have no idea to such degree that you compare all this to English breakfast studies in Peru which is almost as stupid comparition as saying that because you seen apple falling from the three, you think all physics departaments in UK should be scrapped.
All this decisions of your politicians you moan so much here on this forum: do you think Blair will make a decision to open market for Eastern Europeans if he had sufficient knowledge about situation in Eastern Europe?
This is just one example how significant results can Britiain have for not having experts on that field. Thus by saying “this is not legitimate course” you just showing how nothing you know about it.
As for your ad personam attack: my advantage on that studies is that I am familiar with Eastern way of thinking and that I speak the language, which gives me access to the materials unavailable to my British collegues (unless they studied Polish as well). The field of studies is vast and unlike you, I don’t think that I know anything about it just as you don’t know anything about Britain, and you could study Britain for years and years and still have more and more to learn. You could be right if I was studying Polish liguistic studies - that would have no sense and that would be a waste of money and my time. But this is noit the case.
I have to say that the above statement was one of your most stupid posts so far. I don’t think you would postulate to scrap any English literature, Britisch culture, British economy, British politics and so on from your universities? For sure that makes even less sense, as on my studies there is only few eastern europeans, while on British studies British students are majority. For sure that is even bigger waste of taxpayers money?
