Abstract

Park Geun-hye Administration has had a lot of big troubles for the purpose of making government-published history textbooks for more than 4 years until the claim of adjudication on impeachment has been accepted by Constitutional Court in 2017. Making government-published history textbooks by Park Geun-hye Administration, not only returned history education to the past, but also such policy did not have public opinion at the back. Park Geun-hye Administration's government-published history textbooks were published in the order of ‘book in manuscript → book in rewriting the manuscript → book in spot inquiry → final textbook.’ The description of Joseon Dynasty Era out of the total textbooks of Middle School Korean History 1 and High School Korean History amounted to about 17%. The two textbooks did not get out of the description limit of the existing textbooks for Joseon Dynasty Era at all. They rehashed the structural problems which the previous Korean history textbooks used to have, and did not reflect the research trend of Joseon Dynasty Era at all since 2000s. One reason that circles of history opposed the government-published textbooks is that standardized history education hinders students' creativity according to their judgment. As long as the history education is processed just by the unvarying routine style, it is difficult for students to expect historical imagination ability. Therefore, circles of history & history education need to agonize the measure to develop students' thinking ability of history.
