Teaching and Learning Difficult Histories in International Contexts (eBook, ePUB)

A Critical Sociocultural Approach
Redaktion: Epstein, Terrie; Peck, Carla

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Grounded in a critical sociocultural approach, this volume examines issues associated with teaching and learning difficult histories in international contexts. Although official national historical narratives often exclude or marginalize victimized communities, teaching and learning difficult histories is necessary for increased dialog within conflict- ridden societies, reconciliation in post-conflict societies, and greater social cohesion in long-standing democratic nations.
