In Search of an Identity : The Politics of History Teaching in Hong Kong, 1960s-2000, Hardback Book

In Search of an Identity : The Politics of History Teaching in Hong Kong, 1960s-2000 Hardback

Part of the East Asia: History, Politics, Sociology and Culture series

Hardback

Description

This book traces the influences that have shaped the secondary school history curriculum during Hong Kong's prolonged political transition between the 1960s and the early 21st century, focusing especially on the relationship between history teaching and identity formation.

The author's experience as a local history teacher during the mid-1990s made him conscious of the peculiarities of the history curriculum at the time; in particular, the neglect of Hong Kong's own history in both syllabuses and textbooks, and the unique division between 'History' and the entirely separate subject of 'Chinese History'.
