Despite the widespread acknowledgement that how people and groups
understand their history plays a key role in the formation of their
social identity, there has heretofore been only limited research on
the mechanisms that bring this about. This book examines the
critical points in identity formation that history education helps
to create. It establishes how history curricula and textbooks shape
the identities of their readers through their portrayals of borders
and boundaries between social groups, their depictions of relations
between minority and majority groups, the value systems they
embody, the leaders they hold up as exemplars, and the stories they
choose to tell. Korostelina shows how all these attributes of
history curricula can be harnessed to reduce conflict attitudes and
intentions and create a culture of peace, beginning with the
history curriculum.
