Preservation of historical memory today
Abstract
The article considers the modern view of the World War II events, the role of the Soviet Union in the victory over Nazi Germany. Nowadays the main problem is to preserve historical memory for today and future generations. It is unacceptable to rewrite history, distort documentary facts, and condone the revival of Nazism. The teacher’s task is to explain the significance of the Great victory in the modern world; to study reliable historical facts, to invite veterans to share their memories of the military hard times with young people.
