Russia under Putin, as an authoritarian state, seeks for ideological unification, which in the context of history teaching means that the "historical and cultural standard" needs to be worked out. It results in adaptation of the official version of tradition to current ideological needs of the state. In addition, the role of the teacher has been reduced to transmitting the "monologue of meanings" in order to communicate students the public "objective" knowledge. |
