Abstract: (3341 Views)
The aim of this study is to represent the components of national identity in the content of Persian textbooks in primary education that the qualitative content analysis method with inductive approach has been used. Using purposive sampling method, all Persian textbooks of elementary course were analyzed. The findings of this study were 6 main categories in the Iranian dimension and 13 categories in the Islamic dimension, which indicates that the prevailing ideology in the form of dominant discourse has been effective in writing books. Also, considering that the context of the studied books is Persian in terms of content, and should deal with Persian literature related to Iran, but this rich literary background has been marginalized. Representation of Islamic dimension indicates the predominance of Islamic identity and the special importance of this dimension of identity; therefore, national identity has lost its balance and has been exposed to ideological bias.
