Description

This comprehensive academic work examines the political narratives embedded in Korean-language textbooks across more than a century, from 1895 through 2019. The book traces textbook content and ideology across three distinct contexts: pre-colonial and colonial Korea, the divided Korean peninsula, and the Korean diaspora community in Japan represented by Chongryon. Through careful analysis of what textbooks included and deliberately omitted, the author reveals how political leaders strategically used primary school Korean-language instruction as a tool for political control and state legitimation. The study demonstrates the profound influence of shifting Korean politics on educational materials, exposing how governments shaped citizen consciousness through curriculum design. This work forms part of the Routledge/Asian Studies Association of Australia ASAA East Asian Series, offering scholars and students critical insight into the intersection of language education, nationalism, and ideological control in East Asian history.
