Globalisation, Nation-Building and History Education

Více o knize

By employing historiography and discourse analysis, the book explores the complex relationship between ideologies, state narratives, and nation-building as reflected in history school textbooks. It scrutinizes interpretations of social and political changes, highlighting biases and omissions, particularly in the context of the 'Europeanization' of history education within the EU. The analysis draws parallels from public debates in countries like the USA, China, and Russia, emphasizing the global implications of how history education shapes national identity and political discourse.
