About this ebook

Censored History reveals the unsettling ways historical events are manipulated through censorship, rewriting, and erasure, influencing everything from national identity to individual beliefs. The book uncovers how power structures shape our understanding of the past to control the present, exploring the omission of inconvenient truths and the active rewriting of events. For example, the suppression of information during wartime demonstrates how governments control historical memory. This exploration progresses through key areas, beginning with defining censorship, rewriting, and erasure before examining case studies across different regions and eras. It then investigates underlying motivations, such as political ideology and economic interests, before concluding with strategies for identifying and combating historical manipulation. By exposing these methods, Censored History equips readers to critically evaluate historical narratives and resist the ongoing threat of historical revisionism in democratic societies.
