The theoretical framework of historical consciousness offers an approach linking individual and collective uses and re-uses of the past to the question how history can and should be taught. A teaching practice that takes the social constructivist notions of historical consciousness seriously can contribute to self-reflecting and critical thinking and, thereby, to a democratic political culture. The book also offers some examples of good practice in this field.
