Produktbeschreibung

Driven by the increasing importance of discussions around 'impact' and its meaning and implications for history, The Impact of History? brings together established and new voices who open up questions and raise issues and controversies for discussion. The chapters are articulated around the themes of the publics of history, the politics of history, the role of history in the shaping of learning and the situation of history in the changing world of education. Bringing together leading authors from a wide range of fields, The Impact of History? is an accessible and engaging yet polemical and thought-provoking overview of the role of history in contemporary society.
