Abstract	Despite a rich tradition of investigating how 'Oriental' and Middle Eastern colonized others are represented in Western and Eurocentric media, policy papers, curriculum and popular culture, an important issue that has not been adequately explored by scholars of Iranian studies is how Iranian curricula writers have constructed images of Western and non-Western marginalized others in their school textbooks. How do Iranian educators construct the relationship between the 'revolutionary' Iranian self and Indigenous others in the Americas? How does the curriculum reflect on Indigenous peoples and represent their histories? What are the discursive formations that inform the constructions of Indigenous cultures and nations in Iranian school textbooks? In this paper, I deconstruct the dominant public pedagogies that inform the official knowledge about Indigenous peoples in Iranian curricula for Grades One through Nine.
