The Interactive relationship between National identity and citizenship education

Abstract

National identity constitutes the psychological basis and important force for the survival and development of a country. How to shape and construct national identity and maintain the unity and stability of multi-ethnic countries is an important subject that multi-ethnic countries must face. Citizenship education is considered to be the basic path to cultivate and strengthen national identity. The construction of national identity affects the direction of citizenship education, which in turn affects the cultivation of national identity. National identity and citizenship education interact and shape each other. It should be pointed out that both national identity and citizenship education are related to citizenship, and citizenship is the connection point between national identity and citizenship education.
