This Handbook provides a systematic and analytical approach to the various dimensions of international ethnic and domestic conflict over the uses of national history in education since the end of the Cold War. With an upsurge in political social and cultural upheaval particularly since the fall of state socialism in Europe the importance of history textbooks and curricula as tools for influencing the outlooks of entire generations is thrown into sharp relief. Using case studies from 58 countries this book explores how history education has had the potential to shape political allegiances and collective identities. The contributors highlight the key issues over which conflict has emerged - including the legacies of socialism and communism war dictatorships and genocide - issues which frequently point to tensions between adhering to and challenging the idea of a cohesive national identity and historical narrative. Global in scope the Handbook will appeal to a diverse academic audience including historians political scientists educationists psychologists sociologists and scholars working in the field of cultural and media studies.
