Recent historiographical work on Chilean history textbooks
(Georg-Eckert-Institut. Leibniz-Institut für Internationale Schulbuchforschung, 2014-03-10) Minte, Andrea Renate
This article examines historiographical work in Chilean school textbooks. Hermeneutic analysis was conducted on 16 textbooks issued by a range of publishers between 1980 and 2010 in order to analyse the historiographical perspectives of the books’ various authors. The findings of the analysis reveal that textbooks from the 1980s, published in the period of Chile’s military dictatorship, do not include any historiographical work. Textbooks from the 1990s include organised accounts of events which incorporate views from conservative historians without any critical analysis. Only after 2000 is there evidence of an increasing tendency to incorporate recent historiographical work from a number of different ideological perspectives in secondary school textbooks. We close the article by discussing the implications of these findings.
