New working paper with @aronvandepol.bsky.social.
How do the language and ideas of national identity in educational material vary over time and especially across regime types? We examine the question using 67 South Korean national history textbooks (kuksa, in KR) covering the period 1895 to 2016.
📢 Call for Papers! Korean Histories, an open-access journal from the Centre for Korean Studies at Leiden University, welcomes articles, translations, and review essays on Korean historiography as social practice. Deadline 1 Sept 2026.
