The main method of this problem study is the comparative historical method. The study presents, the results showing that a significant portion of the available textbooks on Russian history does not regard Russia as a multinational, multi-confessional state and does not contribute to the formation of a harmonious ethnic and cultural consciousness. The study materials may be useful in the current public debates about the place of a history textbook in a multicultural educational space of Russia as well as during the writing of new textbooks.
