Description
"Based on case studies of France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Russia, and the United States, this volume shows the role that concepts of space and time play in the narration of "our country" and the wider world in which it is located. In western European countries, the nation is progressively reinterpreted through European lenses to replace national approaches in the writing of history. On the other hand, in an effort to overcome Eurocentric views, "world history' has gained prominence in the United States. Yet again, East European countries, coming recently out of an overarching political union, have their own issues with the concept of nation to contend with. These recent developments in the field of textbooks and curricula open up new and fascinating perspectives on the changing patterns of the re-positioning process of nation-states in West as well as Eastern Europe and the United States in an age of growing importance of transnational organizations and globalization."--Jacket.
