Memory, history and social identities: the role of social representations in the formation of social identities and in the construction of pupils' historical understanding

Abstract

This article will discuss how socially constructed representations of the past concerning the role black people played in the memory of Brazil persist in the pupils' minds, requiring cautious approach by teachers. The discussion will be based on data collected from history classes of children 9 to 11 years old and will focus on existing links between memories, identities and social representations.
