History Education at the Edge of the Nation (eBook, PDF)

Political Autonomy, Educational Reforms, and Memory-shaping in European Periphery
Redaktion: Colla, Piero S.; Di Michele, Andrea

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume explores the evolution of history education from a transnational perspective, focusing on border regions in Europe that are considered on the "periphery" of the Nation-State. By introducing this concept and taking into consideration the dynamics of decentralization and the development of minorities' teaching practices and narratives, the book sheds light on new challenges for history education policy and curriculum design. Chapters take a comparative approach, dissecting and analyzing specific case studies from school systems in France, Germany, Italy, the UK, and Scandinavian countries. In doing so, the editors and their authors weave a systematic account of the impact of local autonomy on educational culture, on the civic remit of schools, and on the narratives embodied by history school canons.

Andrea Di Michele is Associate Professor at Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy.

Piero S. Colla is Adjunct Professor of North European Political Models at Strasbourg University, France.

Rezensionen

"The cast of contributors for this book is quite intimidating and mouth-watering since their biographies, though brief, read almost like a Who is Who in History Education in Europe! All 17 contributors possess colourful qualifications on the teaching and learning of history ... . It leaves any reader looking forward to delve into the contents of the book! ... The book is of great service to the history teaching and learning constituency!" (Walter Sengai, Yesterday & Today, Issue 30, December, 2023)
