aThe report analyzes several texts that have not been used up until now: lectures related to the teaching of historical methodology at Vytautas Magnum University. It is argued that the problem of historical methodology in interwar Lithuania cannot be treated as a positivism-anti positivism dilemma. In reality the situation was more complicated and pluralistic. The influence of objectivism that was felt from the times of Leopold von Ranke is noted. Emphasis is placed on the influence that historian Jonas Totoraitis had on historian Zenonas Ivinskis. It is argued that Juozas Jakštas devoted the most attention to historical methodology. The author of the report does not draw any far-reaching conclusions and emphasizes the necessity to use wider sources and methods in the study of the Lithuanian history in the postwar period.

Since 2010, Lithuania has been a State Party of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The development of education policy in Lithuania as concerns the right to inclusive education for children with disabilities is analysed as well as the factual trends of education of children with disabilities in segregated and regular educational settings. Author explores the assumption that the intersection of the patterns of the medical model and of neoliberal mindset in educational discourse impedes the implementation of human rights standards, reasonable accommodation particularly.
