Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to critically explore the traditional image of national identity and to question its validity as a dominant narrative through which individuals define their sense of belonging. The claim is made that children's notions of national identity reflect this narrowness and superficiality and that what is required is a curriculum focus which supports the development of ‘intercultural citizenship’ as a focus for the development of multiple identities in a postmodern world.
