Abstract	Using discourse methodology, the chapter examines the discursive construction of national identity in prescribed history textbooks. Data analysis consisted of interviews of secondary history teachers. The respondents offered detailed statements on the link between national identity, ideology, and Russian history textbooks. The interviews demonstrated that some respondents felt that certain key and controversial events were either ignored or not discussed critically in current Russian history textbooks. New research data was provided for the relationship between national identity and history education. Most respondents agreed that the national identity was formed through the study of historical narratives, depicting signi? cant events in the history of Russia. Finally, most respondents agreed, which was indicative of the political climate in the RF, that the primary value of history education in schools was education for national identity, patriotism, and citizenship education.
