Abstract
World history education is in the spotlight as an alternative to solving the difficulties faced by multicultural societies. But in order for world history education to realize a multicultural perspective, it is important to organize how to set the universality of world history and the specificity of national history. It is necessary to refer to the concept of ‘tolerance’, an attitude to recognize and coexist with each other.BR Korea’s world history education is also aiming for a multicultural perspective. However, the multicultural perspective of the curriculum and textbooks not only gives the impression of just a slogan, but also reveals the perspective of objectifying and otherizing other groups and cultures. Some innovative teachers have attempted to strongly reveal multicultural perspectives, but there is a problem that there are no conditions for continuous implementation.BR In order to create an environment in which world history education can realize multicultural perspectives, ‘integration’ and ‘connection’ are indispensable. In elementary school, some contents of world history can be integrated with Korean history, in middle school, world history and Korean history can be integrated into one subject of each grade, in high school, although it is forced to separate world history from Korean history, it is possible to implement a multicultural perspective in a ‘connection’ way.
