Citizenship Education and History – Reconstruction of the Western Debate
Abstract
Some academics claim that history education is a vital component in citizenship
education, others say that its role is overestimated. In the postmodern
perspective there is “the end of the past” which is, to some extend,
a product of consumption society and globalization. The contemporary societies
are future-oriented and the rituals, myths and the need of belonging
have nearly disappeared. In this context the questions about the purposes
of history education and its relation to citizenship education are posed:
should history education be nation-orientated to build loyalty and commitment
or should it develop skills and knowledge for better comprehension
of the present? Is history education oriented towards consensus or con ict?
How to talk about history in multicultural societies, without marginalizing
particular groups and without imperious imposition of the only version of
“the Truth”? In order to answer to these question the reconstruction of the
western debate has been made.
