Abstract

Historical memory, which is shaped within the scope of the value judgments of the society in which an individual lives in the historical process, is an active past that forms the personality of the individual. This historical past has many dynamics, variables, and essential formations shaped by it. National/national identity, one of them, reflects a type of identity that emerges and develops according to the historical memory of the individual. The study focused on the functions of historical memory in forming and developing national identity. In this direction, the main questions addressed by the article are what are the effects of historical memory on the formation of national identity based on the concepts of identity, national identity, nationalism, memory, collective memory, and historical memory?
