Beschreibung
Sinn und Zweck der Geschichte werden immer wieder neu hinterfragt, weil sich Gesellschaften ständig neu verorten. Davon ist der Geschichtsunterricht direkt betroffen: Warum Geschichtsunterricht? Autor*innen aus 18 Ländern und vier Kontinenten fragen daher nach der Bedeutung des Geschichtsunterrichts aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven: mit theoretischen Überlegungen und Modellen, mit Bezügen aus der Unterrichtspraxis und Erkenntnissen aus der Forschung. Die Publikation präsentiert eine ganze Reihe von Gründen, warum Geschichte heute unbedingt unterrichtet werden muss. Sie liest sich als Plädoyer für einen kompetenten Umgang mit Geschichte in heutigen Gesellschaften.
