Description: |
By exploring the varied depiction of World War I in the history textbooks used in three countries' classrooms the author reveals some important facts. Using what he terms Constellation Analysis, he relates the differences he finds to the distinctive nature of the societies and education systems of Japan, Sweden and England. |
Synopsis: |
Jason Nicholls' Constellation Analysis is an important contribution to studies in Comparative Education. From a deeply philosophical perspective (drawing in particular on the work of Hegel, Gadamer and Foucault), the author explores the ways in which topics in history education may be analysed and compared across international contexts. Utilising the Second World War as an "exemplar topic", the depiction of this crucial historical event in three countries, Japan, Sweden and England, is subjected to a highly novel form of interrogation. The book provides the reader not only with important insights into the nature of the books in use in classrooms across these contexts, but also into the educational - and indeed broad socio-political - environments beyond the classrooms. |
