Abstract
The article deals with the problem of politicization of history. The interference of state power and other political actors in historical science turns the past into an instrument of political struggle. Various political groups use the past as a tool to legitimize their own policies and manipulate public consciousness, which leads not only to a split within society, but also to interethnic conflicts. To overcome the problem of politicization of history and the split of society, it is proposed to “forget history” using the principle of “curtain of ignorance” of the theory of justice by John Rawls.
